Why is it my 5G Internet Gateway can't work using 5G?
As I understand the connections for bands, a B connection is 4G (LTE) and the N connection would be 5G. Whether bands using B12, B2 or B66 that primary signal is a 4G signal, right? Also, from the i...

@jbj I guess they have it right, here on their own interwebs, so depending on where you are and what you can access ... that’s what you get! B66 is 4G/LTE @TMobile.
Don’t know if anyone has reached out to your issues - I get exactly nada from Customer Support - but they do take my money!

I did not know that Band 71 @600mHz could be either 5G or LTE, if or when you can connect to it.

5G
- Frequencies that can provide 5G:
- Band n71 (600 MHz)
- Band n41 (2.5 GHz)
- Band n260 (39 GHz)
- Band n261 (28 GHz)
- With 5G, high amounts of data can be transmitted more efficiently than 4G LTE.
- One of the ways T-Mobile is rapidly deploying 5G is integrating mid-band 2.5 GHz spectrum from Sprint.

Extended Range 4G LTE
- Frequencies that can provide Extended Range LTE
- Band 12 (700 MHz)
- Band 71 (600 MHz)
- Our Extended Range LTE signal reaches 2X as far and penetrates walls for 4X better coverage in-buildings than ever before.
4G LTE
- Frequencies that can provide LTE:
- Band 2 (1900 MHz)
- Band 5 (850 MHz)
- Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz)
- Band 66 (Extension of band 4 on 1700/2100 MHz).
- 4G LTE offers fast download speeds, up to 50% faster speeds than 3G. See Data speeds.
- Voice and data services only work at the same time when on you have VoLTE enabled on your device. Otherwise, LTE only provides data.
