Reuters is reporting that AT&T is planning on rolling out fixes for a software bug that caused Alcatel-Lucent equipment in their network infrastructure to constrict iPhone 4 upload speeds for some customers. This problem was first noticed a few weeks ago, with AT&T later issuing a statement that a fix was on the way.
The No. 2 U.S. mobile operator said on Monday it had begun rolling out an Alcatel-Lucent software patch that would restore uplink speeds for its high-speed data services that depend on so-called HSUPA technology.
