Navigate to the webUI menu: Modem->Network Status and show us a screenshot.
If you don't see that, upload a screenshot of the web UI and I can help you navigate it.

Quectel (easy to work with) EM160 - Cat16 4x4 MIMO modem: https://thewirelesshaven.com/shop/modem ... em160r-gl/
I would bump up and go with the 5G RM520, because it supports ALL the bands: https://thewirelesshaven.com/shop/modem ... rm520n-gl/
