    I would imagine it would be a bit more consistent and reliable but there is no way of connecting the dongle to ethernet homeplugs.... Unless the homeplug socket things can pick up a wifi connection and make it into an ethernet landline?

    You are really starting with the wrong 3G device. I doubt (happy to be proved wrong) that the E5220 will work with any 3g router that takes a USB dongle (must try it and see sometime!!).

    You either need a new 3G device that has ethernet ports on it or you need a wireless access point that can be set up as a wireless client. The wireless client connects wirelessly to the E5220 and then can be connected to Home Plug (TP-Link or whoever) with an ethernet cable through your house wiring and back out to your computer via another Home Plug using another ethernet cable.

    Its also possible to get a Home Plug system that connects wirelessly, not used them and wouldn't be 100% sure how they work.

    Either way there is some configuration that needs doing.

    If you buy a new 3G/4G wifi router that has ethernet ports then you can get away with no configuration and just plug and play (pray?).

    You can use more than two Home Plugs, once one is connecting with the 3G/4G device you can add more but need to configure them to work with the first pair you buy.
