Router for wireless broadband sim

Hi,
I'm looking for a decent router compatible with wireless broadband that will take a sim card .
I need it so I can use QoS to prioritise my device.
I currently have a Huawei b525. It doesn't allow QoS.

    Unfortunately none of the Nighthawk Pro Gaming routers are SIM card compatible.

     

    If you could get a SIM card modem, you could connect that to a Nighthawk Pro Gaming router. For example, you could buy a NETGEAR LB2120 and connect an XR500 to the LAN port.

     

    Given the relative unreliability of cellular networks (in terms of ping), you would likely have to set some rather agressive QoS.
