    I want to get a wireless router for my 3 dongle.

    I'm looking at the Edimax 3G-6200N nLite

    What do you think? Does anyone have one?

    Thanks:)

    I bought one of these routers a couple of days ago and i've had nothing but problems with it.

    Firstly it would not recognise my SW Compass 888. No amount of resets and updating the firmware would make it recognise it.

    It connected straight away with my E220. Everthing appeared to be going swimmingly and I set up my Essid, everything was going fine (browsing internet etc...) until that is I unplugged the lan.

    My PC saw the network with full signal strenght but refused to connect to it. I tried 2 different machines and had the same problem. i've tried evrything i can think off - disabling the firewall, disabling encription, changing the channel, reset's....

    I'm at a loss as to what else to try... anyone got any suggestions???
    :confused:

    Have found what was causing the problem. The signal was being interfered with by a wireless a.v. sender that I had set up to to my Sky Box, once the a.v. sender was switched off all my problems with the router disappeared. Turns out the are both broadcasting at the same frequency range.

    All working perfectly now :)

    Still doesn't work with the Compass 888 though.....

    I have been using the Dovado UMR for the last year. Simple to use and setup and worked with 3 and O2 for me.



    Dovoda have a big thread at the top of this forum...
