Aspects encompassing public land mobile network (PLMN) configurations are disclosed. In one example, first and second PLMN configurations are determined, and a parameter having a common identifier between a hybrid PLMN and a PLMN from a different PLMN configuration is identified, such that the hybrid PLMN may connect with a first or second core network type. Inclusion of the common identifier is limited to either the first or second PLMN configuration via an index, and the first and second PLMN configurations are transmitted. In another example, first and second PLMN configurations are received, and a hybrid PLMN in one of the two PLMN configurations is selected. A determination is made whether to use the hybrid PLMN to connect with a first or second core network type. Whether a hybrid PLMN parameter was ascertained via the first or second PLMN configuration is reported. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.
