LBR20 LTE Network Selection

Hello,

 

I'm considering replacing my current ZTE MF288 LTE modem with an Orbi LBR20.  This modem would be my primary internet connection. I'm located in Canada but I'm utilizing an AT&T SIM and data plan.  Because I'm roaming, I have the ability to select the LTE network I want to use.  With the ZTE device, I'm able to search and select any of the available networks.

 

Is this possible with the Orbi LTE modem?  I wasn't able to find any information in the manual or images online that would clarify.

 

Thanks.

    Incase anyone in the future is looking for an answer to this question I took the leap and pick up an LBR20.  From all of my testing and troubleshooting, I cannot find a way to lock the modem onto a certain network.  The device seems to bounce around the various networks for no reason, typically landing on one of the slowest for my use case.

     

    If anyone Canada is looking for a 3 week old LBR20 for a good price, let me know.
