A bit late to the party.....

You may want to try a 3 mobile SIM. As they piggy back EE towers signal should be good. A guy from the Spiceworks forum posted that he used APN: 3internet for a variety of 4G routers and was able to dial into each one using its public IP and DYNDNS. He even sent me a link so i could see it working!.

Hope this works for you.

I don't care which towers they use, but in my experience the Three signal very much depends on where you are. I'm in Cardiff, a capital city - 5G more or less non-existent. If I visit Caerphilly, just up the road and expanded so much it's nearly a suburb, I have no mobile signal at all.

Same across the water, in North Devon. While idling away the time in Dunelm's car park in Barnstaple, I did a speed test using Three that came back as 80/20 (which is significantly faster than my home broadband). However, back at said home, the Three speed test just times out :(

On the plus side, I didn't actually pay for the Three SIM which comes with 250Mb of free data per month! (I can't remember how I acquired it...)
