Didn't see anything on this with the little google fu I could do.
Tower had some upgrades recently and gives me an AVG D/L speed of 1.5 GB down on my phone and 80 ish D/L on my WiFiX. I know I can do better
The bands are here but when De-selecting ALL NSA bands and selecting SA bands the SA bands don't stick. Leaving NSA bands selected the SA bands still don't stick. Currently I can CA on 3 bands But it's only about 80 Down. Tried setting Cellular mode to 5G SA only and it only reverts back to automatic.
I'm pretty sure it is capable to work in SA mode? For shits and giggles I want to try it for the Upload speed that may be available.
B66 (Bandwidth 15 MHz Down | 15 MHz Up)
n71 (Bandwidth 20 MHz)
B2 (CA, Bandwidth 15 MHz)
WH Diamond Package
Quectel RM520N-GL
MBIM Mode in a sled USB connected to my NEXS2GO

Re: NEXS2GO Selecting SA Bands
If trying to force SA mode only, the tower may not support that alone and falls back to NSA which is completely normal till they go full SA only.
One of the best ways of testing a tower, is by inserting the SIM into a newer iPhone like 12 or 13 which contains both SA/NSA including mmWave.
Did you mean 1.5 GB(ytes)/sec or 1.5 GB(its)/sec? There's a big difference, you divide the Mbps by 8 to get the GBytes. 1.5 Gbps equals to about 180 MBytes per second which great as is. Gotta keep the speeds consistent in Megabits/sec (Mbps) otherwise it's just a mess.

Re: NEXS2GO Selecting SA Bands
I'm not to worried about the speeds I know things will differ some between phones and Routers, WiFi and LAN connections but more on why I can't select SA bands in the GUI. I thought 1,520 Mbps converted to 1.5 GBs. I'm able to reach speeds of 1,520 Mbps via my OnePlus 11 phone using the T tablet plan and in NSA mode. And I agree it's wicked fast. Will leave everything in Mbps from here on out.
Cellmapper and Network Cell Info state from my phone I can connect to N71 SA if i'm understanding these apps correctly. SA may not be the fastest by any means but i'm trying to experiment with selecting and deselecting some bands for moms house that isn't so lucky to have these speeds. Heres what Network Cell says at home. The WiFiX router is alot slower. At home I also have a Spitz Ax I use at home and it's on NR5G-SA FDD Band 25. I assume that means it's also on SA band 25. I see speeds off this setup avg 200-400 mbps always.
