Abstract: A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to an device detection and network slice assignment service. The device detection and network slice assignment service may include providing a subnetwork slice connection between a fixed wireless access device and a fifth generation (5G) radio access network device to an end device that is not 5G compatible. The fixed wireless access device may detect the end device based on an identifier included in a network assignment request. The fixed wireless access device may assign a network address, which may be associated with the network slice assignment service, to the end device. The fixed wireless access device may route traffic to and from the end device via the subnetwork slice connection.
