About this deal

Remember if you're using cellmapper to identify the bands available then as that data is crowdsourced there is a chance that no-one has been nearby recently to capture new data for any new bands that may have been added. Contributing data yourself is obviously the best way to add to the pool (android phone required) and potentially find new bands. Which port on the B818 have you connected your GS108 switch to? Is it the LAN only or the LAN/WAN port? With its sleek and modern design, the Huawei B818-263 router is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. It is compact in size, making it easy to place in any location. I read with interest that you can plug a telephone handset in to this as above, I'll probably be using Smarty/Three UK and on my phone get VoLTE symbol with Smarty so assume that it should work ok. Hoping to get SMS configured as well, so I can kind of use it as a family phone number, like the good old days.

From the information you've shared, assuming the mast is indeed only B3+20, then the 4GEE EE router you have is perfectly suited. While a different than router may see incremental changes in throughput I doubt it'd be worth the outlay. For it not to revert to 3G you need to access the VoLTE settings in the router configuration and turn VoLTE on, not all firmwares have this and also not all masts can handle VoLTE. The Huawei B818-260 supports all the popular LTE frequency bands in Europe and Asia: Band 1, 3, 7, 8, 20, 28, 32, 38 and 42. For those who prefer to have it in MHz: 700, 800, 900, 1500, 1800, 2100 and 2600 MHz are supported for FDD-LTE, 2600 and 3500 MHz for TDD-LTE. The Huawei B818 is thus very well prepared for the future! The Huawei B818, or Vodafone Gigacube CAT19, left a very good impression in the test. In particular, the new LTE wireless router was convincing, this offers above-average speeds and is extremely future-proof. Currently, the speed advantage of the Huawei B818 is still manageable compared to many other LTE router models. The operation and configuration was very easy in the test and if necessary, any other SIM card can be used in addition to the Vodafone SIM card.The mast and the bands deployed there are the first determing factors you need to know to say if a different device would improve things. The Huawei B818-263 router is a high-speed wireless router that provides fast and reliable internet connectivity. Designed to meet the needs of both home and small business users, this router offers a range of features and capabilities.

I think my key confusion is carrier aggregation, cause my online search suggests the default ee 4g+ is limited to 2-3, I was wondering if this Huawei device would boost it 25-75%.

In my quest to upgrade the home network, I'm fine with buying a new Unifi switch, I have the 'business case' for more ports and PoE, so could easily match the U6-lite with a Switch-lite 16 port. Equally if there's some issue that requires a Unifi USG then I'm more than happy to add that too, I just cant see what would cause this issue? Obviously I can go round removing one HA device at a time and see if that does it, or conversely add them to the BT SH2 that is currently being used as the 'switch' for the B818 network, but that only has 4 ports so can't get all the devices on it. HUAWEI B818 gives you uninterrupted Internet access thanks to the combination of a mobile network and an Ethernet connection. Get access to fast internet using Wi-Fi or a network cable. You can also create your own local network.
