  4. Excellent post, Suresh! This is very useful.

  5. @kiran Ignatious, If you can share the model no. of your router maybe I can research on it find out more about the device compatibility for you.

    Yes you can share the internet using your router. I'll explain it to you in short. Connect your Modem through USB. Enable Internet sharing on the dialup connection for your modem. Now Connect the LAN cable from your system and plug it into the WAN port of your router. This should work.

    Let me know in case you need any further help and I'll be glad to help you.

  6. @RoveKasparov, Yes these Routers will work with Reliance 3G cards. Make sure about the device compatibility with the router before you purchase. i.e. The Brand and Model of your data card should be compatible with router. You can find some here: http://shop.ebay.in/?_from=R40&_trksid=m570&_nkw=3g+wifi+router&_sacat=See-All-Categories

  8. With increasing dependability over the internet, every one is looking for the most reliable Broadband internet connection. Airtel Broadband internet connection is the most preferred internet access solution because it is being offered by Bharti Airtel Limited, undisputed leader of telecom sector. Like other services of Bharti group, Airtel Broadband internet connection also offers many extra features being anticipated by the people who trust our capabilities.

  10. @jothimalar, Do you even read the article before posting a comment. I intentionally posted your comment so that I could let other know whats going on. If I am not wrong you are into some SEO business. Your comment on Airtel broadband has nothing to do with the post on 3G routers. Next time read before your comment.

  12. Dear Mr. Sureshkumar,
    First of all, thank you very much for giving out bits of knowledge we erquire.

    I have tried your method of unlocking my Huawei 1550 Modem (3G enabled). I used the unlock code in place of the flash code in the process for unlocking. It is unlocked and works fine for most of providers like DOCOMO in 2G but does not work with BSNL 3G. But only it shows the blue light and thus can detect the 3G range.

    I have tried the same process twice but for no use. In the second time, the unlock code was not asked even and the process finished successfully.

    Kindly help.
