This will have to do until Openreach figure out how to connect the fibre in the street outside to the building.
My little mobile hotspot from Vodafone that sits on the desk beside the pooter and nowhere close to a window is averaging at 175mbs on 4G and is more often than not managing way over 300mbs via 5G with unlimited data. So not bad value for £23 per month really (compared to paying a few quid more for the normal type broadband that only gives 67mbs in this area)
