Verizon Wireless spokesperson Jeffrey Nelson today said that the company has restored service to its Long Term Evolution 4G network. "Our network engineers and vendors quickly identified the issue and solved it," said Nelson. "Customers using the ThunderBolt [should] have normal service." Nelson also noted that users of USB modems may still have problems when switching between 3G and 4G modes, but said this will improve over time. Verizon's LTE network went down across the nation on Wednesday, leaving users of it 4G services in the dark. Verizon didn't explain what happened to the network.

Big freaking deal that 4G LTE was down for a day. It's not like it's available everywhere or a lot of people are using it. 3G was up and running normally. It's not like the whole network just went into 1x RTT mode for 24 hours.

Good thing it's back up and running.

Especially when people go from being acustomed to 800kbps-1.5mbps to speeds upwards of 6, 8, and 15mbps. It's hard to go back to those EVDO Rev. A speeds.
