Using JIO 4G sim card in India can't connects to NB-iot . Here network provider supports NB-iot do we need to buy a separate sim card for NB-iot or we can use our normal sim and use some AT commands to activate nb-iot in that normal sim card.

Hi,
    I'm in India Using JIO 4G sim card in India can't connects to NB-iot . Here network provider supports NB-iot but if i try to connect the network it is searching for a network. I tried few AT commands (set command AT%XSYSTEMMODE=0,1,1,0->but error 518) to enable NB-iot in my normal 4g sim .do we need to buy a separate sim card for NB-iot or we can use our normal sim and use some AT commands to activate nb-iot in that normal sim card?. Because in service providers website I seen NB-iot PAN India(jio's NB-IOT is available PAN India and covers 95% + census population).If i call to the service provider and ask about NB-IOT services they don't have any idea of this! .so, what I need to do now whether I need to buy a special sim card with nb-iot support or we can use our normal 4g sim and try to activate nb-iot using AT Commands or i need to buy e-sim of the same service provider which is 5G so this only can connect to network and work?I'm new to this can you please assist me?
