Hello, I am here to unload my questions on setting up a home network using a antenna to connect to a 3G/4G mast that would achieve much better speeds than what I am receiving now.
Firstly, I am a gamer and want to be a content creator; uploading to YouTube and wanting to stream gameplay to twitch.tv @ 720p. So, let me give you some idea of how things are at the moment. I am getting ~3megabits downstream and 0.80megabits upstream. These speeds are terrible for the internet usage at my home. I have my sister who is constantly using bandwidth streaming, then I have my dad who likes to watch internet TV and then I have my self that is always downloading games, playing games and uploading videos and watching them and the internet cant handle this the way it is.
I want to know the best way of setting up a 3G/4G connection so that I can successfully do all that I want to do.
Now, I know that only two providers, provide Unlimited data and that is 3 and Giffgaff, but they limited download speed. Im not too sure about 3, could anyone shed light?
I want to know what the best setup for this would be. Routers, antennas to put on house etc.
I understand that signal and speed gets better closer you are to the mast? Its annoying that O2 and EE do not have an unlimited data plan because their masts are a nice distance from me.

Do you think that I will get a good connection with ping / latency below 100ms?
If this setup works well with good speeds, it will replace the existing copper connection.
Does anyone have screenshots of what speeds are like using a 3g connection through 3?
Cheers, any recommendations or suggestions are welcome.
