LTE-A stands for LTE-Advanced and is more reliable and delivers true 4G speeds. LTE-A is 2-3x faster than regular LTE.
You can generally expect speeds between 10-50Mbps. Please note, however, that speeds are determined by the external environment around your home and where the router is situated in your home.
