Wireless Joint

I switched to the 5G NR only and it connected to T-Mobile with really decent speeds. Check out this speed test.

I'm very happy with the speed and latency.

well done. Have you gotten all the 5g bands of 6450 on your 6400?I mean band n78


I don't see n78. Here is the output of a bunch of the AT commands.

Update: it appears uninstalling the device in Windows device manager and scanning for changes so that it reinstalled the driver fixed my issue. I was able to flash back to the original firmware.

I have an MR6400-1DNNAS and I was having some issues locking bands and other issues with it often dropping to LTE or Roaming, so I tried flashing the firmware MR6450-100EUS_23115597_NTGX65_10.04.25.00_00_Generic_00.34_00.secc.cwe.
