my Droid Bionic has been disconnecting its 4G at random times and very often. When its using 3G, it seems much faster than the 4G connection as well. I would definitely appreciate some help or advice on what i can or should do. thank you.

I have the same problem in the Chicago area...also on a Droid Bionic.  If I run SpeedTest, I have about a 50/50 chance of it completing without a data disconnect.  First noticed this happening yesterday while using Navigation.  I rebooted today and removed the battery.  No change, and very frustrating.

I'm in Southern California and 4G also drops when doing anything that requires data. I also have the Droid Bionic. Hopefully this gets resolved soon because it's very frustrating...

There is a maintenance update available for the DROID Bionic. It might take a week or two to reach your device, but you can certainly check to see if you can pull it down to your phone.

I'm in Savannah, GA and having the same problems and have so since I got the phone last November but it seems to be getting worse.  I hardly ever have a strong 4G signal and my phone does not toggle (for lack of another word) between 4G and 3G which means I'm left with Zero G!  I hope the update arrives soon, but as usual I'm sure the south will be the last to see it!

I finally received the 5.9.905 update.  I am still frequently being disconnected from 4g.  If I switch to 3g, then it is completely stable...I just cannot stand the 3g speed after zipping along on 4g.

Other than this small group, I don't see complaints reported any where else.  Is it just Bionic owners with this problem?  Just users in a certain area/region?  If anyone else is experiencing 4g disconnects, please state your device and market.  I've had this behavior for a week!

4 bionic users in my department. All of us have started getting frequent disconnects from 4g starting in the last couple of weeks. I also have a 4g aircard at my desk, but don't have any problems with it maintaining connection.

Yes.  I received the update 5 days ago and still experiencing the same problem on my Bionic in the Chicago Area.  I've switched to 3g which is completely stable on my device.

Just found a similar discussion with the same issues in a Motorola Razr forum.
