Hi,

I need an LTE router with support for an external antenna. I have a Yagi installed because I don't have LOS otherwise, and reception is very bad without it. Thus the exclusion of USB LTE modems

Any help and suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Also, gigabit ethernet support would be better because I'm thinking of using it for gaming. (worth it?)
150Mbps LTE max speed would be desirable
Support for MTN LTE (I bought the R150pm for 50GB black friday deal ) (BTW this will probably repeat on Monday 28th)
I have 2Mbs ADSL line, but not good for downloads and I'd prefer to not have to keep both (TP-link router)

So far the only modems that might support these features, are
ZTE MF283+ (not sure if Gigabit ethernet)
Huawei B315 (stupid question, but are the external antenna connections for LTE or for WiFi?)
Huawei B593 (only 100Mbps LTE)
Huawei WS880 (not sure if MTN support)
TP-Link - All support only 100MBps Ethernet

If there are any other modems like the TP-link that would beat these hands-down, then 100MBps max Ethernet is probably not such a bad thing ;-)
 
You will be disappointed with 'Gigabit' Ethernet on B315s (it connects Gigabit, but actual speed is not exceeding Fast Ethernet), otherwise it is the best option from above.

Cellular antenna connectors, not WiFi.
