It's very likely that you'll only be able to play with modes, while having a single choice for capabilities. E.g. a modem with "gsm-umts, lte" capabilities will likely be able to change allowed modes to e.g. "2g-only", "3g-only", "4g-only" or auto. Another example, a modem with just "gsm-umts" will very likely allow also setting "preferred modes"; e.g. "2g+3g but 3g preferred". The specific combinations that you can choose will be listed in the general modem info. |
