usb mobile broadband (router )

homingbird

Hi my sister is using 3 mobile broadband on the usb stick & is looking to go wireless can this be done by buying a router & sticking the broadband stick into it. I know that 3 sell that hotshot for wireless broadband but heard it is crap so am not going to buy it. Thanks.

I use this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Zoom-3G-Wireless-N-Travel-Router/dp/B002SXMH12/ref=sr_1_4?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1349014493&sr=1-4

Great little router and don't be put off by its size I've got my O2 3g mobile broadband usb modem connected to it and it broadcasts wireless signal around the house strength is very good and consistent running two desktops, one laptop and a ps3 off it and it has worked flawlessly for two years now.

This one also available similar spec without the travel ability if you don't require it and less expensive.

Absolutely all you need do is change the default password give your network a name and away you go.
