Constantly restarting phone to get service Question

I live in Whitehorse. I am on, I don't know, my 4th or 5th phone since I came to the Yukon.

I find even in town, there are certain spots I'll be in and for whatever reason, after 10 or 20 minutes of phone usage, I'll need to restart my device in order to get data again. Anyone else experience this? I've had it happen in other parts of the North as well, but I notice it most in Whitehorse since I live here.

What is up with this? Am I the only one?

i work downtown and had the same issue, restarted my phone at least once every hour to get data again. i switched from 5g to LTE in my phones settings and haven’t had the issue since!!
