How to convert data connection settings 2g to 3g

I also use a 3G mobile broadband USB stick before and as far as I remember, I didn’t change a setting and it automatically shifts between GPRS and 3G depending on the signal that is strong in the current location. There are different options available on the dongle that you can set the device to: GPRS, 3G only, and WCDMA.

When you set the dongle to “GPRS”, it will connect permanently to 2G network which is the slowest available connection. Selecting “3G only” will make the dongle always connect to 3G network and this is the fastest available connection for the broadband USB stick. Selecting “WCDMA” will configure the USB dongle to shift between 2G and 3G networks depending on which signal is the strongest.

Though 4G is already in use today, the 3G USB dongle can only see and use 3G connections. To use 4G, you need to replace your device with a 4G-capable mobile broadband USB stick. Aside from your USB dongle’s built-in dashboard, you can also use Mobile Data Monitoring Application. It works the same way as your 3G stick’s dashboard.
