MR6150 5G SA Band Lock

I need to be able to band lock the MR6150 to a 5G standalone network. Is this not possible as I don't see any settings to do so?

 

It appears the device keeps trying to access a nearby AT&T network, but i need a lock to my private enterprise 5G SA network.

 

My 5G SA Network:

Band = N48

PLMN = 315010

 

 

Current FW:

  • One more thing to note,

     

    Be aware, you have to "Right-mouse-click-on" the posted link to view it, within a new browser tab!

  • It seems the MR6150 doesn’t currently allow manual locking to specific 5G SA bands like n48. The device relies on automatic band selection, which is why it keeps picking up the AT&T signal. If the option isn’t in the UI, the firmware likely doesn’t support it yet. Checking for newer firmware or contacting Netgear support might be the only way to get SA band control.

      The post above, as a link address within it (Right-click on the link, to view it in another tab within your browser) if you don't do that, you'll get a pop-up message have to leave this site chat discussion.

       

      An easier option would be to use a custom made (SIM) so that your connecting to your "own private 5G standalone network" !
