Using a 3g connection to make a wireless network

    Hi, I am having trouble getting broadband through my home phone so have resorted to using a mobile Internet connection. I have heard that I can use a 3g router and create a network that way, but most of the the wireless router that have this only have g capacity and I'm looking for n capability.

    Can someone recommend a router with 3g usage and n+ wireless also or is it possible to route the 3g router on to another wireless router to boost the signal.

    Thanks in advance.

    Neil

    If the 3g router has an ethernet ( LAN ) socket on the back , there's no reasong why you can't run a cable from it to other stuff

    It's the edimax 6200 which has LAN also. So it would be just a matter of plugging in and the second router would also broadast the signal?

    That Edimax can take a 3G USB modem and broadcast it wirelessly.
