I have two contracts.
I have a Three sim only contract that is in my router (it’s actually back on offer now). This is because they provide unlimited data, no caps or fair usage, it’s 5G ready and they actually allow you to use it as a hotspot. Don’t forget to claim your £70 cashback too.
And my phone contract is with EE 
Infact I just got my cashback the other day and used Monzos pay early for the first time 
So the sim you’re using in your router is just a standard phone contract sim - with no issues?
That’s awesome but the first link is for a sim only.
The second, for the cashback, is a router which includes another sim deal? I don’t see how they combine. You’d end up with two contracts for home broadband.
3 were hot at checking the type of device a sim was used in and blocking it if it wasn’t acceptable.
So I’m surprised to hear this works
Yep no issues. Can even log into the router to send and receive texts if I want.
Not anymore. I even double checked by asking customer services, including if there are any “fair usage” policies where they’d place restrictions. They said no and highlighted this in my contract too 
Here are some of the terms

You’re confusing me now 
You buy a sim only deal and instead of putting it into a phone you put it into a special router (that you buy separate). This then behaves like a normal router but gets its internet from 4G by using the sim card instead of cable or phone line.
The router I bought was £90. So what I was saying is if you claim the £70 cashback for getting the sim only contract it will only cost you £20
I’m no good at explaining things like this, but hopefully that makes a bit more sense 
This is the video I followed, it explains it really well and I got the equipment he suggests:
Ofcom told 3 they weren’t allowed to limit the type of device a particular SIM was used in.
I also use a three unlimited sim in a Huawei B525 Router, 300-400gb used per month and no issues.
Three 5G unlimited home broadband is £35 a month.
Their 4G signal is terrible in E14 so I wonder what 5G will be like.
I’m using the unlimited calls mins data for £20 a month deal that they have often.
I’m lucky that three is pretty good in my place,
My signal wasn’t the best so I bought the external aerial shown in the video I linked earlier. It went from 3 bars to the maximum 5.
Super cheap home broadband and no line rental or anything - so I’m happy 
Intrigued with this. I get solid 4G+ speeds but on any train I can rarely get a decent signal for more than 10 minutes.
Is this normal behaviour? This is across various networks and handsets.
I remember that. Seconds not even minutes in some cases.
The main use case for 5G now is when they get symmetrical rates giving actually-usable upload speeds as even Virgin Media fibre has completely crippled upload at the moment.
Are there not any unlimited deals for 5G yet?
There is on Vodafone and Three
5g! I can only get 3g when the wind’s in the right direction, the tide’s in and the stars align in the shape of a cat.
We’re stuck with BT steam-powered broadband as we’re so rural (6 miles from the nearest town) and we both use BT mobile as it works everywhere but home and they gave me 40gb of data a month which is great for streaming when we go away.
I’d love to be able to make calls on my mobile from home but I don’t get a signal until I’m at the top of the hill overlooking the town.
In a way I’m glad we won’t be getting 5g as I’ve read so much about the health risks. Just tonight I was reading about birds in Coventry who can’t navigate since 5g started. I’ve also heard it was designed as a military weapons system. Who knows. Personally I think they need to do a lot more tests on its safety. I’d just be happy to get 3g and a signal on a regular basis.
Reminds me on when I was younger and getting Channel 5 before Freeview.
I remember my spending weeks trying to tune/retune channel 5 to the test signal to make it better before launch 
Lol, we only had 4 channels until about 10 years ago when Sky decided to supply the village 
You people who live out in the civilised world don’t know you’re born! Mobile signal, 5g and TV you can watch when it rains. What luxuries!
I’m rural and didn’t get a phone signal either until I got a mobile phone that has the ability to make wifi calls. Not sure if that’s an option for you?
