I'm looking for a wireless router something like the MTN Fastlink B970 to use on VC prepaid - I have a USB/expresscard modem .

Any suggestion and recommendation on what to get and where to buy it will be most welcome.

TIA

PS. I have two standard type wireless routers, but just cant get them setup to share the HSDPA modem.

I have a Linksys router which I am quite happy with. Billion also make routers that will take either USB or PCI/Express (with a converter). Draytek also have an option. There is also a thread about using a cheap router with custom firmware but it's not for the faint hearted.

The Billion is probably the best bang for buck at the moment and will allow you to fail-over between an ADSL link and 3g (if you have both). I would check some of the online stores for pricing.

There's is the D-Link DIR-451 -

Dlink Wireless 4 x 10/100 Port Router 3G Router (UMTS/HSDPA) - 1 x USB Port for Huawei 220 adapter + 1 x PCMCIA Slot for E620 adapter

Retail Price should be around R1350 - R1450 (+/-)
