New 4/5G sim card arriving so i can replace my horrible ADSL home network but I cant decide on the router. I need something as powerful as my old Asus DSL-AC88U in terms of features and wifi range but needs to take a sim card for 4/5G internet and have a high CAT value.
My provider deal comes with a Huawei CPE Pro however there isnt much info online about how good the actual wifi is. I'd be very keen to see how it compares to something like the AC88U or Nighthawk routers.
Are there any other routers out there that can take a sim card and have excellent wifi range? I'd very much like to have features like beamforming, Mimo, 4x4 antennas, QoS, Guest Networking etc which tend go along with high performance routers.
EDIT: I'd very interested to know if the AC88U could still be used as my main router and just use a cheaper 5G modem for the signal reciever? Best of all worlds, get to keep my AC88U which im really liking at the moment but get awesome 4/5G speeds and also dont need to reconfig my whole house again (wifi extenders, alexa, smart plugs)
