We have a EE 4g router with an unlimited data access- however our speeds are barely 8mb download during the day and it’s often less than 2mb. As my wife is conducting video conferences frequently this is not working. It appears that we now have 5g in the area so can I buy a 5g router and put the existing router sim in it and get 5g? Or will the sim only pick up a 4 g signal no matter the router?</P> Wed, 12 Oct 2022 20:51:35 GMT Gavindv 2022-10-12T20:51:35Z https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Mobile-Broadband/Can-I-put-my-unlimited-data-SIM-card-in-a-5g-router/m-p/1185049#M22384 <P>Hi - we have only mobile data internet at our house due to poor wired internet speeds.

Nowadays all EE contract SIMs come with a 4G/5G plan but not so long ago some EE SIMs had only a 4G plan.</P> <P>Is it on contract or PAYG? As yet PAYG SIMs do not support 5G.</P> Wed, 12 Oct 2022 21:04:28 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Mobile-Broadband/Can-I-put-my-unlimited-data-SIM-card-in-a-5g-router/m-p/1185056#M22386 XRaySpeX 2022-10-12T21:04:28Z
