7.2. Notes regarding regional coverage
A good reference to check frequencies is 4G world Coverage Map. Note that the page also contains 2G and 3G information, which is on its GSM World Coverage link on the top.
USA, Mexico, Canada and most of South America: 1900 MHz is the most common frequency for 3G, which is unsupported for this version of GX GSM. Use the GX LTE 4G instead.
Australia: The 900 MHz 3G frequency in remote areas is typically provided by Optus. Telstra's rural 3G network operates at 850 MHz, which is not supported with the current version of GX GSM. Both Telstra and Optus operate 2100 Mhz networks in urban areas, and are supported.
