Query about new 5g wifi modem/router

Hello.

I have today received a n email message from one of my 
telecommunications providers, that I use for Internet access via 4G, 
stating that, as from next month, our cellphones account will be changed 
for 5G access.

I have been using a TP-Link AC1200 dual band 4G LTE modem/router, for a 
number of years, without any problems, and, in looking to upgrade to a 
5G replacement for it, have found this one at 
https://www.amazon.com.au/FastMile-Broadband-Gateway-5G15-12W-Unlocked/dp/B0CDBSZ6J3/

I am wondering whether anyone in Australia, has experience with this 
model, and, if so, whether you can tell me whether it is worthwhile.

Whilst I believe that the current TP-Link 4G modem/router has an inbuilt 
firewall, I have no idea whether the Nokia 5G modem/router has an 
inbuilt firewall.

I seem to be unable to find a TP-Link 5G replacement for our current 
primary modem/router, at a comparable or better price.

Thank you in anticipation.
