Mobile antenna

Does anyone recommend a external mobile antenna for 5g reception that works
Extremely vague question given the number of variables involved.
What router do you have, what kind of 5G signal do you have, have you done any measurements, what is your local mast (or an you share a location)? etc
 
If your talking about Panel Antennas that you take out of a box whack on a pole with the Panel facing approximately towards the Mast then I would suggest Huawei, Panorama and Poynting, but as @Lucian suggests its not always that easy, its well worth doing some homework on your surrounding Network(s), 4G and 5G Bands, Signal Strength and Quality etc, then fine tuning the Antenna Type for best requirement and performance.

There is already a pinned topic to the top of this forum with a link to an article about antennas.

However, it doesn't appear to have been updated for a while and as with any technology, things move forward at some pace and could probably do with a review. @Mark.J, is there any plans for this in mind?

 
I think the only things I'd change are some of the specific antennas mentioned, since the broad strokes of advice in that article should still be correct. But I’ve not looked into antennas for a while, so may need to see what's changed with the latest kit.
