Sim card routers

threeball · 2013-01-29 19:29:42

Are there any wireless routers that accept a sim card internally (like the Huawei E960) that work on the 3 network. Not keen on using a plug in USB as they get so hot and this would be likely to be switched on most of the time.

Three have the a new Huawei router, have it myself. Nice enough bit of kit, has 4 ethernet ports and a usb port. Wireless range doesn't seem to be as strong as the old b260a though.

It's the Huawei B863. It says that it's currently out of stock though. If you go to boards.ie/three and send one of the reps a PM (if you're on billpay they will be able to tell if you are eligble for an upgrade to that router) they'll probably know when it's due back in stock.
