In the end, the 3G coverage was very unstable at our house, and I returned the 3G stick. No reply from their media team when I asked about availability. - Alan in Belfast Mon, 16 Mar 2009 20:46:38 +0100 http://www.automatedhome.co.uk/New-Products/Sharing-USB-3G-Mobile-Broadband-with-a-WiFi-Router.html#comment-279 OK, at : http://www.huawei.com/mobileweb/en/products/view.do?id=1180&pageId=null it says the D100 will do Wi-Fi at up to 54Mbps, so it must be 802.11g the user guide shows it can connect to one PC via Ethernet, too (in addition, it says, to multiple connections via Wi-Fi) still no info' on modes etc, though ... so, on the face of it, the Solwise looks more comprehensive & versatile - CJ UK Fri, 23 Jan 2009 23:09:57 +0100 http://www.automatedhome.co.uk/New-Products/Sharing-USB-3G-Mobile-Broadband-with-a-WiFi-Router.html#comment-278 Thanks Tim - I found that (& stopped the download) ... it was the one for the Huawei D100 I hadn't found ! - CJ UK Fri, 23 Jan 2009 21:25:53 +0100 http://www.automatedhome.co.uk/New-Products/Sharing-USB-3G-Mobile-Broadband-with-a-WiFi-Router.html#comment-277 CJ, The user manual is at the bottom of the Solwise page - all 225 pages & 10MB of it! It looks pretty good, and avoids the god-awful wall-wart power supply :) Cheers, TimH - TimH Fri, 23 Jan 2009 20:21:42 +0100 http://www.automatedhome.co.uk/New-Products/Sharing-USB-3G-Mobile-Broadband-with-a-WiFi-Router.html#comment-276 Geoff H over on UK_Selfbuild suggested this as an alternative : http://www.solwise.co.uk/3g-routers.htm which looks good - like the three modes (router, AP, client), too ... downside seems to be it's 802.11g, so it would slow some (802.11n) networks down rather a lot ... not sure what standard of Wi-Fi the Huawei D100 (above) provides - or what modes it might have - need to see the spec', but not been able to find that, yet ! - CJ UK Fri, 23 Jan 2009 16:20:28 +0100 http://www.automatedhome.co.uk/New-Products/Sharing-USB-3G-Mobile-Broadband-with-a-WiFi-Router.html#comment-273 Looks just the job (assuming OK with our Mac's) ... would enable us to free-up a laptop, too (free-up in the sense that 3G reception inside the house is good in only some places, and whoever is hosting the USB stick has to fit with that) ... now all we need is a way of putting the stick outside the window & this device inside (ie: our windows are metalised, and signal strength & so download speed suffers due to consequent S/N issues) ... wonder if a short USB cable would be OK to achieve that ?? - CJ UK Fri, 23 Jan 2009 10:46:10 +0100
