Huawei B535 internet speed

Hi I’m using a Huawei B535 router with a Poynting mimo antenna on three network, I use it in a Motorhome and at the moment in in a area that’s not great for three but the router is showing a cyan signal light with 4 bar signal but the internet speed can range from 3/4 mbps to 0.4 with no change in signal bars, is this normal. It seems as if the router is not always giving out what it should
 
Signal bars are a visual representation of the measure of the RF signal being received over the air for a given frequency band - they should not be interpreted as a measure of throughput.

Throughput can be impacted by any number of variables; including, but not limited to: which band is connected, how much spectrum a provider owns in the band, the backhaul capacity to the mast and the current load on the cell (number of users connected/using to the same cell as you).

That said, if RF metrics (power/quality/SINR) are low then this could have an impact on the potential throughput if the signal was the limiting factor over any other variable.
 
If your router is selecting Band 20 on three it can give awful speeds. Try installing a PC LTE monitor such as LTE-H Monitor or LYE Inspecteur and play with band selection. If you can pick up B1 or B3 they should do far better.
