If you want to know which type of network it is, you can use this :

private String getNetworkClass() {
    // network type
    TelephonyManager mTelephonyManager = (TelephonyManager) this.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
    int networkType = mTelephonyManager != null ? mTelephonyManager.getNetworkType() : 0;
    switch (networkType) {
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_UNKNOWN:
            return "Unknown network";
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_GSM:
            return " GSM";
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_CDMA:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_1xRTT:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_IDEN:
            return " 2G";
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_GPRS:
            return " GPRS (2.5G)";
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EDGE:
            return " EDGE (2.75G)";
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_UMTS:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EVDO_0:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EVDO_A:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EVDO_B:
            return " 3G";
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_HSPA:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_HSDPA:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_HSUPA:
            return " H (3G+)";
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EHRPD:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_HSPAP:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_TD_SCDMA:
            return " H+ (3G++)";
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_LTE:
        case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_IWLAN:
            return " 4G";
        default:
            return " 4G+";
    }
}
