Hi,
I have shifted my house and in the new place, there is no option for wired connectivity. I am planning to get an Airtel 3G datacard and need to get a 3G router.

Looking at the list here:

Any of you have experience with 3G routers? Any recommendations? I already have a netgear wireless N router, and I am planning to use it for wireless network (because I heard that these 3G routers have very low range).

Thanks,
~Jain

TP-LINK & ASUS are the only considerable options with ASUS being costlier but comes with extra features.
