    I wonder if you can help, please!

    To get a project out of a hole, I need to share out a Imagine 4G dongle connection over a wifi network.

    This piece of hardware looks like it will do the trick - but it's out of stock! ps Pixmania are in stock, but can't guarantee delivery within 24h, looking for a brick and mortar place to buy.

    Can anyone suggest a similar piece of kit please, or does anyone have one of those for sale? Need to get this sorted by Wednesday, ideally tomorrow.

    thanks

    It won't work.
    As far as I know, there are no routers that support the Motorola USB stick that Imagine are supplying.

    Have you tried connecting the USB dongle to a computer. Enabling internet connection sharing and attaching a wireless AP to the computer's NIC.

    Thanks FSL - that's exactly what we tried and it's working well now. Appreciate the advice!
