Hi. It's still a mixed bag:

AldiTalk used the Eplus LTE network in the past on 1800 MHz. This was shut off because of the merger with o2. All LTE now comes from o2 mostly on 800 MHz and 2600 MHz. And it's slow because of congestion. They are allowed to use new spectrum only from 2017 on. Actually o2/Eplus 3G is faster than their 4G/LTE now. A speed check gives me 6 Mbits DL on 4G and 20 Mbits DL on 3G. But even lower rates were reported with 4G. So you might get better speeds using it on 3G.

For the highest speeds (and rates) in town use Telekom (or Vodafone). But they will not sell you a GB LTE per day for €2, but for much more. Still Eplus/O2 is the only network covering the U-Bahn (underground trains) all along the lines with 3G or 4G. Using it on Telekom or Vodafone gives you only 2G/EDGE there.
