Hi Guys, I see a couple of threads on this subject but sifting through them to find current information might take extremely long.

Thus my question:

We currently have a 3G USB Modem (white Cell C) but my 12 month subscription has almost run its course, I'm thinking of subscribing to the 8ta specials, using the same modem.

We have a PC, Laptop and PS3 at home, which I want to serve with a WiFi Router.

What Wifi Router would you guys suggest? Please give a price and shop details if you know where I can find it, I would like to go buy one this weekend.

Thanx

since your contract is almost over, get a vodafone R201 router or mtn has a similar one and 8ta has similar ones. You put the simcard straight in the router, it does everything for you, if you get one like the R201 it has 5 hours battery life and is smaller than a normal cellphone so very portable and often can be used with no cables at all. It can charge via usb or wall socket and really is a no hazzle router.

Other router I have is a DOVADO router where you plug in your 3g modem but its really rubbish compared to a R201 mifi router. to many cables, to 'un-portable', to big and 'un-cool'
 
Anyone know where's the cheapest place to get one of these R201s?
