Would TP Link be a good option??

I have heard good reports about TP Link Archer MR600 AC 1200 MBPS 4G + Cat 6 but all I can find to buy at any store is the TP LINK MR 200 AC 750 so I dont know if i should sit tight and wait to find a better model of TP link or huawei or bite the bullet and go and get this one...

also is it possible to put a SIM into a Vodafone broadband modem HG659 & connect to a SIM unlimited internet... I just cant find WHERE a sim would go?

The HG659 does not have the capability to use a simcard - it's a DSL/fiber router only.

Maybe the above mentioned one that's in stock on the website would be suitable? (I don't have enough knowledge to be sure of that). They supply nationwide, apparently (maybe they could get one to you and answer queries over the phone, if you need any help).

The 600 is compatible with more frequencies and can aggregate signals from more than 1 mast so would be more future proofed than the 200. In practice, the 200 will give up to 150Mbps while the 600 gives up to 300Mbps. In real world terms it's 20Mbps vs 40Mbps depending on time of day.

While closer to town means more mast capacity...it also means more users so congestion might be an issue on a single mast modem (4G) whereas a multi mast modem (4G+) will perform better at peak times.

AFAIK some of those modems have a USB slot for a SIM dongle but the 659 doesn't appear to have that facility.
