Thailand has 3 networks in this check: AIS, True, NT Mobile. 4G bands: AIS B1 B3 B8 B28 B41; True B1 B3 B8 B28 B40 B41; NT Mobile B28. 5G: AIS n1 n3 n28 n41; True n28 n40 n41; NT Mobile n41. The most common 4G bands are B28, B1, B3. The bands come mostly from Kimovil, some cross-checked against a second source for now, so treat the verdicts as provisional.

Huawei E5576-320：One of the most common travel pocket Wi-Fi units; no North American B2, B4, B12, B66 or B71, and no 2G.

TP-Link M7350：No B28: in countries that rely on 700 MHz for coverage (Australia, much of Latin America) the rural signal will be weak.

Quectel RM520N-GL：Full 5G (eMBB, NSA and SA), not RedCap; B29, B32 and n29, n75, n76 are downlink only.

Quectel BG77：LTE-M and NB-IoT are assessed together: B14, B26 and B27 are LTE-M only, B71 and B85 are NB-IoT only.

Quectel BG770A-GL：LTE-M and NB-IoT are assessed together: B26 and B27 are LTE-M only, B17 is NB-IoT only.

Quectel BG95-M3：LTE-M and NB-IoT are assessed together: its LTE-M also has B26 and B27, its NB-IoT also has B71.

u-blox SARA-R510M8S：LTE-M and NB-IoT are assessed together: B25 is LTE-M only, B66, B71 and B85 are NB-IoT only, and the “00” versions do not support NB-IoT.

Nordic nRF9160：Bands are those Nordic lists as certified so far; LTE-M and NB-IoT are assessed together.

Quectel EC25-E：The EC25-E has no B28; where B28 is needed (Australia, New Zealand, Israel and others), choose the EC25-EU or EC25-EUX from the same family.

Quectel EC200U-EU：In the same family, the EC200U-AU adds B2, B4 and B66, and the EC200U-CN is for China.

SIMCom A7670E：The A7670E has no B28 and no Americas bands; where they are needed, choose the A7670SA from the same family (B1/2/3/4/5/7/8/28/66).

SIMCom SIM7080G：LTE-M and NB-IoT are assessed together: B14 and B27 are LTE-M only, B71 is NB-IoT only, and the SIM7080G-M supports LTE-M only.

Quectel BG96：LTE-M and NB-IoT are assessed together: B39 is LTE-M only, B25 needs release R1.2 or later, and the BG96-M supports LTE-M only.

Quectel EG21-G：The same 4G bands as the EG25-G at Cat 1 speed (up to 10 Mbit/s), suited to low-data, cost-sensitive devices.

u-blox LARA-R6001D：The D version is data only; for North America, the LARA-R6401 in the same family adds B14, B66 and B71.

Telit ME910C1-WW：LTE-M and NB-IoT are assessed together; the newer ME910G1 family adds North American bands such as B25, B66 and B85, and its versions differ, so check before choosing.

Quectel RG255C-GL：The specification is a preliminary release; the module is certified on T-Mobile. 5G needs 5G SA with RedCap on the network; elsewhere it falls back to LTE Cat 4.

Teltonika TRB140 (0*****)：Listed by the maker as B28A, the lower half of 700 MHz; the few operators using only the upper half of B28 may not work. For the Americas, choose another version.

Teltonika TRB140 (1*****)：No B20 (the 800 MHz coverage layer in Europe): it works in European cities, but suburban and indoor coverage will be weaker; and no B12, B13, B66 or B71, so not for the United States.

Teltonika RUTX12 (0*****)：The maker also lists B32 (1500 MHz), receive-only and only as a secondary carrier in aggregation, so it is not counted as a band that can carry a connection alone. Excludes Japan and China Mobile; no 2G.

Teltonika RUTX12 (1*****)：The maker also lists B29 (700 MHz), receive-only and only as a secondary carrier, so it is not counted. No B71 (T-Mobile 600 MHz); no 2G.

Teltonika FMC130-ME3：Built on the MeiG SLM320-E2 module, LTE Cat 1 with 2G fallback; no 3G. For the Americas, choose the FMC130-MCIB0.

Teltonika FMC130-MCIB0：Built on the MeiG SLM320-LA module, LTE Cat 1 with 2G fallback; no 3G. No B12, B13, B66 or B71: not for the United States.

Quectel EC25-AF：The North American version for Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, Rogers and Telus; no B1, B3, B7 or B20, so not for Europe or Asia.

Quectel EC25-EUX：Adds B28 over the EC25-E (listed as B28A, the lower half of 700 MHz) but has no B5.

Quectel EC25-MX：Designed for Mexico: B4, B7 and B66 for Telcel, and B28, the only band Altán uses.

Quectel EC25-AU：The maker notes that B2 on the EC25-AU has no receive diversity, so performance drops in weak signal. No B20, B12 or B13: not for Europe or the United States.

Huawei E3372h-320：Per its GCF certification record: LTE B1, B3, B7, B8, B20 and B28, no TDD. Some listings quote the bands of the E3372h-153 (without B28), so check the suffix when buying.

USR IOT USR-G771-E：LTE Cat 1 for the mainstream European bands, with 2G fallback; no B5, so not for the Americas. The Chinese USR-G771 has different bands; do not mix them up.

USR IOT USR-DR154-E：LTE Cat 1, tiny and DIN-rail mountable; the Chinese USR-DR154 has only B1, B3, B5 and B8, so pick the -E version for deployments abroad.

Which IoT module to choose in Thailand: picks by use case →

Hyper Nexus dongles in Thailand

Scored with the method below; the 5G mark applies to the F40 (RedCap). To test another module, paste its band list.

Good: the main bands and the coverage layer are all supported. Limited: it connects, but some main or coverage bands are missing, so signal is weaker in some areas or indoors. Not usable: no band in common.

Certification details come from Hyper Nexus product data.69

Network access: long-term roaming

Many globally deployed IoT devices use multi-network roaming SIMs that can attach to several networks in a country, but some countries restrict long-term roaming by foreign SIMs. A local SIM roaming domestically is not affected.

No clear rule found: No information yet.

Questions

Which 4G bands does an IoT device need in Thailand?
