    Hi OP, I've moved your thread to the Midband forum. I reckon you'll get a better response here.

    I've also left a permenant redirect from the Mobiles forum too.

    DIR450/DIR451 are the same router, one is EVDO (USA only) and the other 3G/HSPA/EDGE firmware. Not generally available.

    Netgear, Linksys, Dovado, Solwise and others also make routers. See the other threads in this forum.

    Cheers Watty,

    Was talking to a seller just now, for what I need he said it will cost £100 or so, he recommended the Billion Bipac 7402x-3g/adsl2+ Router

    Just make sure it supports your Modem. You can't install driver (those are only for PC/Laptop). You can only choose models already built in.

    I've heard of Billion but not used it. Make sure GSM/3G/EDGE/HSPA and not an EVDO firmware.
