Hi all
Currently I have a Plusnet FTTC connection (Tier2) which only gives me about 45mbps due to the cable length from our premises to the cabinet. Openreach have been out and investigated and say its not a fault, its just the length of cable.
IMO 45mbps ain't great for a 21 century internet connection, especially since I moved from a Virgin connection which could go up to 500mbps. Yes, OK, I know lots of folks are struggling to get 20mbps!
So... Having used 4G with a router and external antenna very successfully in the past, I'm thinking about using a 5G router and maybe an external antenna, as Three say our area is good for 5G.
Any ideas which router would be good to use and what speeds I *might* see?
Regards
