EE vs Huawei router vs Mullvad vpn

I'm going out of my mind with this one and desperately need help before I ugly cry!

I've been using Mullvad vpn on my mifi device with an EE sim card and had no problems. Bought myself a Huawei B535-333 router to get better speeds as I live in my motorhome which basically acts as a faraday cage and boy does it deliver. Where I am at the moment gets 8gbps down on the mifi and up to 70gbps on the router.

But for the life of me, I cannot use my Mullvad vpn with the router and the EE sim but if I put my Smarty sim in the router, it works a treat. So what am I missing?

I have to assume that as the router is more advanced than the mifi, there's going to be a toggle switch I just need to flick off and I'll be golden! Please let that be true.

Thanks
 
Might be a Long Shot, the EE SIM might be being assigned an IPv6 Address, whereas the Smarty SIM does not, and your Mullvad VPN might be setup to not support IPv6.

Try to Locate "APN" Settings on your Router with the EE SIM Inserted (Might be Under "Carrier", "Mobile ISP", or other terms, but I'd like to think its there somewhere), and check if "PDP Type" (on my Router at least, might be "Protocol" on others) is Set to "IPv6" or "IPv4 & IPv6", if so, try changing it to only be IPv4, and restart your router. If it won't let you change the EE APN Settings, try to create a custom profile, with the same settings as the Out-of-box EE Settings, just set to IPv4 Only
