We live on a hill with line-of-sight to several masts in the local town (Ross On Wye). I currently have a very good 4G connection to the nearest EE 4G masts (one at 3.5km the other at 5.7km), using an external aerial pointing towards the masts. I've attached the latest hourly speed tests to the more distant mast as I tend to get better speeds with that one.
I just received an alert saying that EE now have 5G in the area. Their coverage checker shows a "good" (2 bars of 5) outdoor signal. Is it likely that, if I get a 5G router, speeds would actually be any better than I'm getting on 4G? My antenna is a Poynting XPOL-2-5G so it should support the 5G signal OK.
