About LinkBacksIn the past month, I've tried all 3 network providers of mobile broadband: SmartBro, Globe Tattoo and Sun Broadband. I am finally happy with my Sun. Price, speed and service if pretty good compared to the other 2 (what a shame). Now I'm looking for a router for this so I don't have to keep connecting and at the same time share my connection with other laptops and not worry about it snapping off my USB port. I thought I saw a shop in Greenhills using a router with the Sun dongle but I didn't get to stop to ask about it. Can anyone suggest a router and where I can find one? Thanks!

Re: What router to use for a USB dongle modem? You can drop by the Sun Shop and get the huawei D100 router, you can plug in your sun cellular modem and do the easy setup. It has 1 ethernet port and can connect 32 wifi users. 3,500 is the SRP

Re: What router to use for a USB dongle modem? IT IS the router. You will plug the modem (that little antenna that is movable is the modem) to that small device and it will broadcast wifi signal. Just go to any sun shops, preferably a crowded one to get that device.
It has 1 rj-45 or ethernet connector for one wired PC.|MacBook 2.0GHz 2GB 80GB 10.7.2 White|iPhone 3G 4.2.1 Sun|MacBook Pro 13 inch 2.4Ghz 4GB 250GB Lion 10.7.3|iPhone 4S iOS 5.0.1 Globe|
