Previously I had a 4G router with a sim card in it. It basically acted like a glorified mobile hotspot.
Now I’ve got a 5G router with a sim card in it. It too acts like a glorified mobile hotspot.
It costs the same but my internet speed has gone from about 7mbps to 250mbps !
But it’s only about 80% reliable. That’s the downside. I don’t know if it’s a problem with the 5g signal or a problem with the router itself. But I’ve decided to put up with it for now.
Years ago they said you’d be able to download a film in a few seconds with 5G
Noticed they quietly did not deliver that and most people forgot after it dropped off the news cycle!
Good find !
From the article
to reach the 10 gigabits per second target.
Oh gawd.
And thanks to your covid boosters your signal is 10x improved! Lol jk.
Thats fast internet thats awesome. 
I also have 5g. It’s pretty reliable,and it’s convenient
It was probably replaced for ads to stream on netflix and prime lol
Nice . I want 5G in my area. But some twats convinced the council that the rays were harmful. We had the same crap when 4G came out.
I mean the antennas are literally quarter of a mile a way atop a tower block.
And they still wont do it.
Hmmm…
I made a change to one of the router settings and now it’s a solid connection. 100%.
Fingers crossed 
I also have a wifi router with a SIM card in it, think it’s 4g. Not the best download speed but it works, can play online games and stream Netflix just fine
I think they’re great (when they work 
)
Wow 250 is massive, fair play
I also have a 5g router at my house. But I don’t get 250 mbps! I only get 150 mbps, and that’s at like 2 am when no one else in my town is using the internet lol. Wish I could afford broadband because I like to game, but it’ll do for now!
Can’t wait till they release 6g, but I wonder if it’ll be that much of an improvement considering the article posted above, about how they didn’t fully deliver what they promised about 5g, but I heard 6g will have lower ping! Hopefully!
Sometimes if you place the router higher up the house (like the second floor if you have one) or closer to a window you’ll get a better connection (considering the signal is coming from a cell tower)
Maybe that’ll help
I’m thrilled to bits with my internet connection now. It’s 100% reliable since I made those changes to the router 4 or 5 days ago.
This is the first time I’ve had a fast reliable internet connection.
Good old 5G !
