Huawei CPE 370 External Antenna Mod

I’m not sure if I’ve made it clear, but 1772 is my only option really for a fast and reliable connection, maybe 50820 but it’s much lower mast and in the valley. It’s been connected to 1772 for 5G for the past 6 months. But when 4G comes from my local mast, the 5G won’t connect to 1772. The setup I had before the 4G would come from miles away 1 of 8 maybe different masts it jumps between.
 
192.168.8.1/api/device/signal
4G & 5G antenna connected directly to the board.

In this setup, I believe it's using 13054 for 4G and 5G, which makes sense as it's showing 40 Mhz 5G band.

I set up the router and just the 5G antenna how I had it before, all 4 internal antennas connected. 5G antenna connected via the 2 external ports. Both internal square antennas disconnected. It's using 9915 for 4G.

Showing 100Mhz, which would be 1772. The Speed is also much higher than the 2 local masts could provide.

I’ve just finished setting up the 4G directional antenna, after doing some testing I’m very happy with the results. I’ve had to upgrade the pole to fit the upgrade. When using the internet its now much more responsive than before.

I’m hoping someone might be able to help, I’ve changed the 4G antenna to face 13054 and it connects to Band 1 only, but when connected to band 3 there is no 5G like what was happing before. So I have LTE H running 24/7 band locked to just Band 1 which works a treat. The only problem, half way thru the day the 13054 masts speed cap is applied to download only and then I’m on 30-100 Mbps max. Before I would get a steady 700+ Mbps. I have 2 auto band forces setup, at 6am and 7pm. Forcing bands fixes the problem till the next day. I can’t setup a band force mid day due to working on zoom and the call dropping. Just to note while this happens nothing has changed signal wise, hasn’t dropped from the original connection and has the correct uptime. 5G signal hasn’t dropped and band 1 by itself does about 30 Mbps. Thank you in advance.
