6620L Jetpack XLTE Compatible?

Verizon Wireless Website shows the 6620L is NOT compatible with XLTE, however the specs show it is available on LTE Band 13 (700 Mhz) and LTE Band 4 (1700 Mhz). These are the same bands that the MHS291L operates on which IS XLTE compatible. Furthermore, PC Magazine says a software update in 2015 will make the 6620L compatible on Band 2, the only Jetpack capable of this - and even claims it is XLTE compatible. So why does Verizon Wireless indicates this in NOT XLTE compatible?

Because its not.

If it operates on the AWS Band 4 @ 1700Mhz as it states in the specs, then why is it not XLTE compatiable? What is different about XLTE other than the frequencies (Band 4 and Band 2 in future) that it operates on?
