==What is band lock==

Mobile connectivity solutions are rapidly spreading in many different areas and industries. It provides attractive advantages, such as high availability, widespread coverage, relatively cheap implementation and mobility. In many cases, fiber optic or broadband solutions are simply unavailable or impractical. Usually, deploying mobile connectivity is a fast and simple process, but, occasionally, the default and automated set up does not result in the highest possible bandwidth or the application itself requires faster data rates, than the initial setup provides. There are many different factors that affect the quality and speed of mobile connection, but one of the ways to achieve a better performance is to use certain frequencies. When the user equipment is picking the frequency band to use, the selected option is not necessarily the fastest one. It often is just the most available with the best signal quality indicators at the current moment. Depending on the changing connectivity conditions, the selected band can change as well. Different frequency band will provide different speed as speed is highly dependent on the bandwidth of that band and the congestion of the cell tower at that frequency. Even though higher frequencies provide higher data rates, in certain conditions quite the opposite is true, faster connectivity might be acquired on the lower end of the spectrum. Modems used in Teltonika devices support a feature, which allows to manually select a specific band or several bands from all the available ones, and force the connection through those specified frequency bands. Selecting one band will force the device to use that specific band, selecting several will allow switching between them. The ability to fix bands through which mobile connection is carried out is called band lock.
