If you're looking to replace your 4G Huawei B818-263 with a 5G router for your narrowboat, there are several options that could work well for your needs. Since you require external antenna ports due to the metal construction of your boat, I recommend focusing on routers that offer this feature to ensure you get the best signal possible.
One solid choice is the Netgear Nighthawk M5 (MR5200), which supports 5G connectivity and has external antenna ports. It's portable and can easily handle multiple mobile and wired connections. Another option is the TP-Link Deco X20, which provides 5G capabilities, multiple Ethernet ports, and also supports external antennas for better reception.
Both options are generally within your budget of £500. Just make sure to check the compatibility with your mobile provider to maximize the 5G experience.
