This setting allows you to select how the modem should operate.
l auto (default): In this mode, the modem firmware will control the cellular network service selection; so
the cellular network service failover and fallback is not interrupted by the remote AP (RAP).
l 3g_only: Locks the modem to operate only in 3G.
l 4g_only: Locks the modem to operate only in 4G.
l advanced: The RAP controls the cellular network service selection based on the Received Signal
Strength Indication (RSSI) threshold-based approach. Initially the modem is set to the default auto
mode. This allows the modem firmware to select the available network. The RAP determines the RSSI
value for the available network type (for example 4G), checks whether the RSSI is within required
range, and if so, connects to that network. If the RSSI for the modem’s selected network is not within
the required range, the RAP will then check the RSSI limit of an alternate network (for example, 3G),
and reconnect to that alternate network. The RAP will repeat the above steps each time it tries to
connect using a 4G multimode modem in this mode.
