Hi, thank you very much for your feedback.

The official firmware of V4 and V5 has not added the manual-band selection feature yet.

If you need the manual band selection, please refer to the following beta firmware:

MR200(EU) V5:

https://static.tp-link.com/2020/202010/20201012/Archer_MR200(EU)v5_1.0.0_0.9.1_[200925-rel32374]_up_boot_all_2020-09-30_11.15.13.zip

MR200 EU V3/V4

https://static.tp-link.com/2020/202007/20200714/LTE_GATEWAYv3_1.11.0_0.9.1_up_boot(200325)_2020-06-12_15.48.55.zip

 

 

Add LTE Band Select on Basic->Internet page or Advanced->Network->Internet page

                                                                                                                                                                                 

Thanks a lot and wait for your reply.

@TP-Link  There is a new update for mr200 v4 today, still does not incorporate the option to choose the band? 

 

 

Edit: I confirm that there is no option to change the band.  Unfortunately tp link does not listen to its users.  I'm going to huawei.

That's unfortunate, but at least this leaves some room for anticipation and hope :)

The fact is: why not? I am now almost sure it's a commercial, deliberate decision to not allow manual band selection considering it's available and working since long (in a beta).

 

It's really a pity to have such a prolonged firmware "support" and still being somewhat forced to keep back for an option that's vital to a lot of users.

 

For the same reason I myself am not upgrading: i strongly encourage TP LINK to finally include manual band selection in it's official firmware ASAP
