1. Is Mblaze 3G?
2. Would those routers be password protected?
3. And give me idea if I bought it then would I have to only connect my Mblaze or any other thing is required?

I dont know anything about this so asking all questions.

1. Is Mblaze 3G?

No, but they are claiming that they give competitive speed.
Code:

2. Would those routers be password protected?

Default passwords will always be there, which you can change.

3. And give me idea if I bought it then would I have to only connect my Mblaze or any other thing is required?

You just need to plug it in.

Actually I found my older modem(UTSTARCOM UT300R2U) which I got with my BSNL internet connection.
So I am thinking of connecting my Mblaze to it and try but modem has USB 1.1 due to which I cannot connect my Mblaze.
Now what to do?

did you read my earlier post?your only option is to get one of the 3 models i mentioned & no you can not use your UT300R2U.just for your information as far as i know there is no adsl modem which comes with 3g usb modem support in India.
