Hello all, I am wondering if there is any method I can use to create a wifi hotspot at home with my e173 Huawei modem from Meteor?
I want to be able to connect my laptop, phone and DS to the net.
Is there some kind of router I could use?

I may also be able to get access to an old vodafone router that the e173 dongle could be plugged into, though I believe it would have to be cracked in order to work with the Meteor modem.

Any and all info would be appreciated.

Nevermind, I got it sorted. The Vodafone r101 modem didn't need to be unlocked and I plugged my modem directly into that
