How to Optimize Your SIM Card's 4G Network & Signal?

If you experience weak 4G signal, unstable connection, slow map loading, or lagging remote features, it is often not a hardware defect. Instead, it is usually related to the local network coverage.

📖 Why is the signal weak?

Mobile network environments vary greatly across the globe. By default, our devices connect to networks based on a pre-set Priority List (PLMN). However, in certain areas, the default Operator A might have poor coverage, while Operator B is much stronger.

To solve this, we offer a Remote Network Optimization Service. Our technical team can manually adjust your device's priority settings to "switch" and lock onto the best performing carrier in your specific location.


🛠 Signal Optimization Process (Step-by-Step)

If you feel your connectivity needs improvement, please follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Check Your Status

Note down your current situation:

  • Your current Country and City.

  • Is the issue persistent, or does it only happen in specific areas?

Step 2: Identify the Best Local Network

Based on your smartphone experience or local knowledge: Which operator provides the most stable signal and fastest data in your current area?

Step 3: Submit an Optimization Request

Send the following information to CHIGEE Technical Support for remote intervention:

📌 Optimization Request Template:

  • SN Code: (Found in Settings -> About)

  • Country/City

  • Problem Description: (e.g., 1-bar signal, unable to connect to 4G live stream)

  • The current operator the device is connected to: (if known)

  • Suggested Operator: (Select from the Full Operator Table below)

    Note: Available operators for switching are listed in the table below. If no alternative operator is provided for your region, this optimization method is not applicable.

Step 4: Remote Adjustment

Our team will remotely update your device's PLMN priority and trigger a network re-scan.

Step 5: Verify the Result

After processing , please check if the signal has improved and the network connection is stable.

If there is no improvement, please provide feedback so we can further optimize the process.

📖 Overview of Applicable Scenarios
Weak/Unstable Signal: The signal icon on the screen consistently displays only 1-2 bars of signal strength.
Function Delay: Remote anti-theft, real-time traffic updates, or 4G-related streaming media functions operate unsmoothly.
Regional Differences: The device functions well in "Location A," but performs poorly in "Location B."
