5gee router which antenna

[simonharryharri]

Can someone point me in the direction of the best Antenna for the 5gee router I got delivered today, EE tell me they don't sell one to go with it?!

Any expert opinions on this 4x4 antenna to target the n28 band signal please?

Or would 1 or 2 of the 2x2 Panorama WMM8G-7-38 be the same, or more effective?

Ideally you won't to try a pull in Band n78 for you 5G Signal that will give you better speeds.

If your strapped for space then go for a All in One 4x4 MiMo, personally I would go for 2 Lots of 2x2 MiMo then space them apart and experiment with the Spacing, and Directions, that should prove a better solution to help with the MiMo Speeds and also has an advanrage if your 4G and 5G Signals are coming from different Cell Masts.

Would happily recommend the one I bought a few months back.

Take a look at my previous post for the make and model. It's helping me achieve over 600mbps down and over 110mbps up.

However, not on th EE network.

Went out for a walk the other day, a route I don't normally take, and I found a 5G mast about 150meters from my home. 

Had a closer look and it belongs to Three.

So, I bought a Three SIM today, plugged it into the EE router, and I'm seeing amazing speeds.

Just a couple of things to confirm.

These new EE routers (2021) are cable of over 600mbps download speeds, actully nearer to 700mbps (peak times), and they can upload at over 100mbps.

In addition to that, they are not locked. Which is why I tried to Three SIM.

New Three contract on order and I'm looking forward to moving over.

Still stuck with EE for a while, but I can use that SIM in the holiday home now I guess.

I've seen it drop a bit, but i guess it's peak time, rather than off peak, and a family member is streaming in the other room. 
However, it's the consistency that i appreciate. 
EE 5G was a bit all over the place, in that it would be as low as the teens and peak at 400. The upload speeds for EE were half of this too. 
So well done to the Zxyel router and a big well done to 3 for their 5G signal.

Are either of these any good. Im not sure where my nearest mast is, plus i think of got 2 or 3 around me so i thought if i go for a onmi one i should get the best of both worlds. Also see as i rent this place can i mount them inside the loft, would save me from having to ask about putting a pole up.

I have no experience with the two examples you have given us, i went with one of these, after some research.
4x4 MiMo 4G/5G Antenna | DWMM4[G]-6-60 (panorama-antennas.com)
It seemed to offer the best overall performance at the time, as there is a 4G EE mast and a 5G EE mast in the local area, but in opposite locations. So i couldn't get a directional antenna. 

However, now that i've switched over to Three network, this antenna does show what's it's capable of, in that i have nothing less than 500Mbps downloads on average and over 100Mbps uploads. So at least i know it was the network not the equipment that is lacking. 

Like you, i'm renting, but i got someone to run up a ladder and attached this to a pole, strapped to the chimney. I have a run of cables down the roof and into the nearest window, which happens to be the home office. It could come through the wall, but this would need to be repaired before moving out.

Did you solve this connection connundrum, please? Upgrading now  to EE 5GEE 2021 from the EE 4GEE router with TSG installed external aerial. Two cables are plugged into the two connection points on 4GEE router. 5GEE router has 4 points.  Which do i use please or maybe it doesn't matter?

I bought the 

QuPanel 5G LTE MIMO 4x4

[kaiisan]

Hi, when you bought this  QuPanel-5G-LTE-MIMO-4x4 - did you install it yourself when you bought it or did you call someone to install it for you?? I'm thinking of ordering one but have no clue how to install it myself!
