Is there a way I can force 3G on Netgear LB 2120?
I seem to have problems with the 4G connection, as the router disconnects constantly. Is there a way to force only 3G connection in the LB2120?
I have the LB1120 and would also like ot force it to the 3G band. Under Settings > Mobile > Preferences > Network Mode the preference is on automatic and cant be changed. is there a way around this?
Thanks in advance.
I haven't found a way to force the 3G connection, in fact I have had to use another manufacturer's router because there is no way to make this one work with a faulty 4G connection.
i to have the same problem with 4G. What modem did you go with to force to 3G?
Hi Everyone,
Currently it is not able to select a band. I will forward this to my internal team and they will review the idea for consideration.
Thank you. :]

hi, perhaps in cellular panel, try to select manuel band et select other than lte.
- I have the 1120, there's no option to choose between LTE, 4g, or 3g
This is a severe design flaw by Netgear to exclude such an essential feature.
Currently on my phone I am getting abysmally poor download speeds, less than 10Kbps on LTE, but much better, although still poor speeds on 4g, 5Mbps.
So of course the Netgear modem in this particular location is essentially useless. A useless pile of junk simply due to the exclusion of a very basic and essential feature.
Netgear should be ashamed for such an oversight. A clear display of ineptitude and lack of understanding or any real world testing.
Since it's been over 4 months since this has been suggested, and no such feature has been added, I doubt we will be seeing any firmware update that might fix our defective useless modems.
Looks like I'll have to return this modem and purchase a new one from a manufacturer that actually knows what they're doing.
