I'm currently an EE mobile phone customer but am interested in 4G home broadband. Can the provided router act as a home hub with multiple Ethernet connections like the router I'm currently using? I'm located in rural Somerset and have Voneus as a provider.
Thanks for any comments.

@thusband : Which of EE's mobile routers are you looking at?
- If it's a 4GEE WiFi it has no Ethernet.
- If it's a 4GEE or 5GEE Home Router it has 2 Ethernet ports.

I need at least 5 Ethernet ports so I guess it would be the Home Router with an Ethernet switch to get more ports. A switch would work right?
Thanks for the quick reply.
