R7100 lock on 4G/LTE

 

hi

 

is there a way of forcing the modem to LTE/4G, i.e. avoiding it to connect to a 3G network?  

 

cheers

    1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network.

    2. Type http://www.routerlogin.net. A login window opens.

    3. Enter the modem router user name and password. The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are case-sensitive. The BASIC Home page displays.

    4. Select the ADVANCED > Setup > Mobile Broadband Settings. The Mobile Broadband Settings page displays.

     

    Here is the settings for the sim card.

      hi

       

      I'm sorry, my question was not precise enough. I do not have (yet) a R7100. I spare you the long description of the reason, but where I have to install it I need to force the modem to connect in 4G mode, vetoing anything else. I did not know if there was such an option in the setup and I could not find any specific information in the manual. 

       

      thanks for the info.
