i highly dought it will be able if the modem it self does not support LTE Band 71. Netgear will have to make a new model that does.. i wish they would make one that supports LTE Bands 2 4 5 12 66 and 71 with Carrier Aggragation and the ability to select which LTE bands you want to use withen the modems GUI plus the Ethernet Output thats found on the LB112x

Audiorulz4u, I agree with all your wish lists items, but I am hoping since I am using an external antenna that it is just a firmware update to recieve the 600 mhz band.

This model does not support LTE Band 71 (600mhz) and never will... Netgear will have to make a new model that will support it.. but it would be nice if they did make one that will Support LTE Bands 2 4 5 12 13 17 25 26 41 66 and 71 with LTE-Advanced Support.. that way it could potienal work across all Carriers LTE Networks.
