Three 5g hub issue?

Hello everyone,

My address finally received three 5g, I've been using a 4g hub for the last few years so ordered an upgrade to the 5g hub.

It arrived this morning, I placed my old SIM in it and set it up, the trouble is I can't get it to switch to 5g, only 4g+. It gets about 90mbps on this but then so did my 4g router. If I take the SIM out and put it in my phone I get instant 5g 441mbps...

Any idea why the router is doing this or any way to force it on to 5g? As no point paying the premium if it'll just default to 4g+ :(

Thanks
 
Hello, Great question tested this myself currently still on my old 4g tplink router for home broadband notice this with my iphone 12 pro max switch off wifi 4g signal stays on indoors never flips over to 5g once I head outside the house 5G signal on the phone....
I need answers before I spend £500 on the new Huawei 5G pro 2 router hope someone can share some light on this.

It could be a signal issue. Try in various locations throughout the house, including the loft and out the window.
You may find you just need to adjust that.

@Newbie789 you may need an aerial if works outside (the window), but not inside.
