Code

changeBand function

Arduino
Call changeBand(GSM_MODE_GSM850_PCS); in setup to change band.
void changeBand(String newBandName) {
  // Use GSM_MODE_GSM850_PCS for USA

  GSMBand band;
  
  Serial.println("Restarting modem...");
  band.begin();
  Serial.println("Modem restarted.");

  String bandName = band.getBand(); // Get and print band name
  Serial.print("Current band:");
  Serial.println(bandName);

  delay(200);
  
  bool operationSuccess;
  operationSuccess = band.setBand(newBandName);
 
  if (operationSuccess) {
    Serial.println("Success");
    String bandName = band.getBand(); // Get and print band name
    Serial.print("New band:");
    Serial.println(bandName);
  } else {
    Serial.println("Error while changing band");
  }
}
