Enabling n41 on MR5200-100EUS
Hello, I've bought MR5200-100EUS, but it turns out there's a difference betwen 100EUS and normal version in terms of n41 support. 100EUS lacks it, but normal does have it (but doesn't have n38). n41...

Both MR5100C-1BNCNS and MR5200-100NAS has n38/n41 supported, you can't now force to pick up non-supported band(s) from AT commands as the FW is filtering it out

Thank you for the explanation. Well, now the weird thing is that European version of the model is filtering out the band required by European mobile network operators. It doesn't make sense to me.

Could you please specify which carriers require n41 in EU countries now?
Thanks

It is Plus (Poland) (MCC 260 / MNC 01). Well, I know only this one, which, unfortunately (for someone who bought 100EUS version), is my MNO :/
First, I thought they didn't activate 5G for my subscription, then the issue was explained: currently, they provide it only on band n41. There are plans to start offering "true" 5G on 3.*GHz frequencies someday, but it is nowhere near close future (regulatory issues).
