Wi-Fi Region Settings - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5

How can I access the Note 5 advanced wi-fi settings? I have the Verizon Note 5, but I'm located permanently outside of US. My old Samsung Galaxy S4 Int. sees like 2-3 times as many Wi-Fi networks around and it has a switch in WiFi settings of setting the WiFi region. Where can I access such setting on the Verizon Note 5?
I've tried *#0011# but it shows code no accessible.
I'm on N920VVRS3BQA1.

[Q] Reset to DEfault Mobile Network settings! Samsung Galaxy 3G

I received a Samsung Galaxy S (Captivate) as a gift.
The phone was on AT&T carrier but was unlocked to be used on T-Mobile.
The first problem is that I can't get the 3G to work, I can only see the signal "E" for edge. Does anyone has any solution for that?
I tried to look to seek some help on some forums and the recommended to "Reset Network Setting" to default by going to:
Settings-> Wireless & Networks-> Mobile Networks-> Access Point Names and then Reset to Default.
This did not solve the problem, but it created another issue. Now I cannot connect to Wirless "wifi" connections.
Help Please.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S3 missing GSM/WCDMA option

Hi, I live outside the US. I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 which I was able to get data working after rooting (EDGE). However, I'm not able to get my 3G/4G. When I checked my Network mode options, I don't see an option for GSM/WCDMA. My friend who has a galaxy S3 has this option as the chosen method so I believe this is the problem. How can I get this option inserted into the phone. Is there any build prod or system file? I have already tried 'Phone Info which also didn't have the 'GSM/WCDMA' OPTION. I also tried accessing Test Mode: CDMA > COMMON > NEXT PAGE > NEXT PAGE > PREF MODE SET to select GSM/WCDMA ONLY.
Pleaseeeee help as I now signed up for a 4G plan thinking it would work with my S3.

MMI Code for AT&T Gear S2 to limit cell radio to 3G?

Hello.
I have an AT&T Gear S2, along with a Note 4, on AT&T. On my Note 4, I can "dial" this string:
#*#*4636*#*#
and get to a "Testing" menu. From Testing > Device Information, there's a box that's actually a pick list of cellular radio settings. If you tap the box, it opens to show various settings. By selecting "GSM Only", I can force-limit the Note 4 to only using Edge or 3G.
I tried entering that string into the watch's dialpad, but it returned an error "Incorrect MMI" or something.
Is there a similar string anyone has found that works on the G2 to force the cellular radio to use the lower-draining Edge or 3G radio, instead of 4G?
Thanks,
crp

5g network on verizon device

I have the one plus 8 uw from Verizon. I cannot for the life of me get this device to connect to a 5g network nor my 5ghtz router. Is there something I'm missing. I have changed my plan, reset network settings and even tried safe mode on the device. I'm in a 5g area as another device can connect sitting next to me.
Try going into settings, Mobile hotspot, find wifi 6 standard hotspot an try either enabling or disabling it.
