MR6150 - Cannot connect to 5G only bands
I recently upgraded the firmware on my Netgear M6 MR6150 and for some reason I have lost the ability to connect to only "5G" bands under CELLULAR > BAND REGION. I used to have this option before. Und...

Yes. We disabled 5G SA support in the latest release with the following considerations.
1. Both AT&T and Verizon don't support 5G SA. So the device was not certified by them with 5G SA
2. T-Mobile supports 5G SA, but based on our testing, the device performance in SA mode is poorer than in NSA mode since in NSA mode, the device can use the LTE connections for data transferring.
If you do need 5G SA support to test on provide network, please reach out to me directly. We can discuss how this can be supported.
Thanks

NTGX65_10.01.49.00 （2022/09/09）I need to restore 5G SA capability on my MR6150.
I'm running on tmobile and when I had SA only option I got alot better performance than NSA I would prefer the option be restored even if obv. not as default.

NTGX65_10.01.49.00
I can't connect to the standalone sa 5g, how can I contact you, is there any method? I have two M6 devices with different firmware versions as follows:
NTGX65_10.04.22.00 -- this one works on our network and lists support for 'all and 5G NR only'
NTGX65_12.01.54.00 -- this one does not work on our network and lists support for ‘4G and 4G+5G’
I found that the NTGX65_10.04.22.00 does not support ip passthrough, whereas the NTGX65_12.01.54.00 does support ip passthrough.
I need both devices to support 5G NR only. I also need at least one device to support the ip passthrough feature.
Is it possible to install firmware on one of these devices such that both '5G NR only' and ip passthrough are supported?
Same issue. Is there any method to contect JohnPeng. Not online for several months :(.
