Orbi LBR20-100EUS lbr20o

After getting 0.1mbps speeds from my BT Broadband I got out of my contract and living in a remote area have no other options. My EE 4G is amazing so I’ve ordered a EE 4G sim with unlimited data. I just now need an LTE router. I live in a cottage that is long and full of thick stone walls and I want to get the best for covering the area. I saw the orbi lbr20 but it’s not out yet. Any ideas If this is suitable for the U.K. and when’s it out. I can wait but I’d need to buy an interim cheaper router any advice please. I work from home and we download films and stream. Thanks

    The announced LBR20 supports the following LTE bands.

    4G LTE Band (LTE FDD): B2,4,5,7,12,13,14,17,25,26,29,30,66,71

    4G Band (LTE-TDD): B41

    Though, I'm sure specific model will be available for each country. The three main LTE bands in UK are 20, 3 and 7.

        Something to ask NG support about. Review the user manual and spec sheets to see if this information is listed there.

      Does anyone know when the LBR20 will be available for purchase?  For me this is the perfect solution for my location.  I have many cell towers near me, and fiber will never make it to my house.  It seems like this product has been annouced for several months, but I have yet to see it for sale in the stores.
