MR6550. no 5G mmWave ability to receive on Nighthawk M6 PRO 6550 unlocked Verizon
Hello. I am getting no 5G mmWave Frequencies to receive on Nighthawk M6 PRO 6550 unlocked Verizon. Firmware is up to date and the Verizon Plan does include UW support. I have a tower that is literally a stone throw from me that I know supports UW because I can receive UW Frequencies on the phone. Netgear is compatible with this as Verizon uses n260/n261 which is also used on Pro 6550.

That's definitely frustrating, especially with a UW-supported plan and tower so close. Sounds like everything should line up might be worth double-checking with Verizon if the IMEI is fully provisioned for mmWave on their network, even though the device is compatible.
