NEXP1GO with RM520N-GL - ROOter Bottlenecking Speeds

I am having an issue with my NEXP1GO with a RM520N-GL internally mounted. The issue is that no matter how much bandwidth is available, I cannot get anything more than around 250 Mbps. I'm on T-Mobile Magenta Max phone plan. I have the same plan on my Galaxy S23+. On the S23+ I can pull 900-1100 Mbps...

Re: ZBT-WG3526 (16M) with EM7565

My experience has been with both 5G-NR SA and NSA connections. SA connections have lower ping that is typically more consistent. Speeds vary depending on the equipment on the tower and backhaul to the tower. As of right now in the US, T-Mobile is the only carrier with fully live 5G-NR SA. As someone...

There is an AT command At!selrat=? you can send to sierra modems and specifically on the em91xx series modems you can choose to do "5G Only" and it will only run 5G SA mode if it's available, which with T-Mobile it usually is especially with n71

Unless you need to specifically connect to a certain band to force better performance due to one band giving worse ping times or speed, it would be best to leave the bands alone as in leave it as all bands. Is there any particular reason you're trying to lock bands?
