Three 5G Pro2 Dropping to 4G

Hello. So I'm one of the lucky ones that lives line of sight of a new 5G mast. So I've signed up to Three.
The issue I have is with the Pro 2 dropping itself down to 4G on low usage. 4G here is terrible and so it'll never see good usage again to kick itself back up to 5G.
Is there a way to force this device to stay connected to 5G permanently?
Thanks
 
This was addressed here I believe:


Log in to router via web browser, Network settings, preferences?

On my Draytek you can add a static route to get access to 192.168.8.1 on WAN1 while the Huawei is in bridge mode
 
Ok, I'm back out of bridge mode. So the CPE Pro2 doesn't like being in bridge mode, it needed rebooting every few hours. Either that or it doesn't like playing with my Amplifi HD mesh router.

Is there any way to get a mesh network going with the CPE? Maybe I can keep it as my main router if I can get more APs for it.
 
So the CPE only likes to be in router mode. As long as it's the one dishing out the addresses, it's not happy. I've now got it as the main router but turned off the Wi-Fi and set my Amplifi Instant as the Wi-Fi APs.

Solid so far. 5G Broadband has been pretty stable too. I average about 780mbps and at peak times, 6pm-8pm, it's about 380mbps.

Cancelling Virgin i guess....

Strange it doesn't like bridge mode. I'm using it fine with three and a ubiquiti edgerouter and a cpe pro 2
