Is there any option in Service Menu to reset or configure or even test the WLAN module? I know about the WiFi menu after punching in *#0011#, but I'm wondering if there is a more interactive WiFi menu where you can do more other than the connection details and the Power Saving Mode ON/OFF button.

As a reply to lisbon2004 about starting a modems thread I think there is some of interest in that, and also for trying to clear some of the confusion up about all the different models and what is flashable with what and which speeds they support.

So the modems we've seen so far is:
  1. Qualcomm Gobi MDM9x25M / MDM9x35M (in all models with Snapdragon, N910F, N910G, N9106W, N9100 etc) - MDM9x25M is CAT4/LTE-A and MDM9x35 is CAT6/LTE-A
  2. Intel XMM7260 (in N910U) - CAT6/LTE-A
  3. Ericsson M7450 (in N910C) - CAT4/LTE-A
  4. Samsung Shannon 303 (in korean models N910S, N910K, N910L) - CAT6/LTE-A

Correct or complement the list if there is something inaccurate or missing in it. Maybe add firmware list for each later on?

Should note that CAT6 is only officially advertised on the Qualcomm Snapdragon model.
About the two different Gobi modems I think the China models N9100, N9106, N9108, N9109 use 9x25m and most of the other Qualcomm Snapdragon versions use 9x35m.

The Intel modem is also a category 6 modem and I'm not sure if something else makes it not fully support cat6. However Taiwanese Samsung site lists the N910U as CAT6 so I guess it has support.
Same with the Shannon models, they are advertised as LTE-A, however while trying to find out info about the Samsungs own Shannon modems it seems Shannon300 is CAT4/LTE-A and Shannon303 supposedly CAT6/LTE-A, atleast some lists it as that. Samsung korean site for Note 4 lists it as having theoretical support for up to 225Mbps which is in between CAT4 and CAT6 standard.

CAT4 modem = up to 150Mbps
CAT6 modem = up to 300Mbps
LTE-A was announced a few years back and provides faster and more stable network with higher capacity than regular LTE. Anything above CAT3 is basically LTE-A.
different modem has a different battery consumption ?

Of course, The Qualcomm's one should be the most efficiency being made in 20nm process.
thank for your reply ....

according to comments of "note 4 battery life" teatre , it seems n910u have a better battery life than n910c too .

how is intel modems in n910u compare to Qualcomm's one .

I don't know, intel said that despite the difference in process node the XMM 7260 is very efficency.

Will it work on sm-n9100 duos flashing the sm-910f?

My question is because the n9100 has lte band 3 and when I'm currently it has lte band 4. Will affect if i flash the modem of the n910f firmware knowing that have the same Snapdragon 805? Thanks Let me know please if there's a thread that explains if it is possible to flash just the modem..

Uou need to get ODIN flash for the C version onto device first I believe??!!?? ;)

I believe the modem.tar.md5 will not flash due to the bootloader still being for the N910H. I think if you pieced the 910C sboot.tar in first under "BL", and boot.tar under "AP", and CSC.tar.md5

Flash with no "auto reboot", and check "phone bootloader update" after device connected. Battery pull after pass, then flash stock C packages. That will change the device over to N910C.
