EM9291 Unable to Connect to n79

not quite sure why you can still register n78 when setting n79 only in AT!BAND…

Sorry I forgot to mention that I changed the setting to allow all 5G NR bands before testing the connection at n78.

i don’t see problem to connect n79 in NSA mode

OK

Hmmm, it definitely seems to be a gNB thing. Thank you for the help and advice! I will reconcile my gNB configuration and see if that solves the problem, when I find a solution I will update here to confirm my suspicions.
