Beta Firmware with Full Band Lock / Aggregation Control for Archer MR600 v5
I’m using the Archer MR600 v5 (Firmware Version: 1.1.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 240830 Rel.58384n) and I would like to ask if there is a beta firmware version available that allows:
-
Full manual band selection / locking
-
Control over band aggregation behavior (e.g., choosing when and how bands like B1 and B3 aggregate)
-
Preventing the modem from disconnecting or reverting to single band when idle or under low load
I am aware that some older versions (v1/v2) have beta firmware with these features enabled. It would be great to have the same level of control on v5 hardware as well.
This is especially important for rural areas with specific signal conditions, where manual band locking provides much better and more stable performance.
Please let me know if a test firmware is available, or if such functionality is planned.
Thank you in advance.
Hi, welcome to the community. Thank you very much for your time and patience.

Full manual band selection / locking
Have you tried to manually search the available LTE bands here:

Control over band aggregation behavior (e.g., choosing when and how bands like B1 and B3 aggregate)
There hasn't been a beta firmware that allows customizing the Carrier Aggregation bands. It is not only related to the mobile router, but also to the current network bands' capacity of the connected cell(such as whether certain bands are crowded).
Thanks a lot.
Best regards.
