4g SIM or Sim + Router

Hey guys,

 

So i want to buy an unlimited 4g sim to play games, work from home and other entertainment however, I cannot decide between just getting a stand alone sim and then buying a powerful router separately or buying the sim package that come with the EE router. Cost is not a concern for me, I'm looking for the maximum performance, in terms of lowest ping possible and high download. Which of the 2 options would give me the best result?

All EE 5G Plans are Full Speed, no matter if it's a Phone SIM or Data SIM Plan of which both will work in a 4G Router.

 

 

Hello,

 

So i decided to end up getting a sim only deal, paying everything month for unlimted data (comes with 1 extra which i chose BT sport) it had much lower speeds then i had expected compared to my brother who lives in the same house getting over 100 download while the highest i got is 60 and lowest being 18.

 

Have i once again been connected to the other mast with my new sim?

All EE pay-monthly SIMs would connect to the same network sites as each other.

 

Is that max 60Mb/s speed constant at all times of day/night?

havent checked at night, since i have been going to bed early for work.
