Here’s another 3G broadband router sent in for review — the Edimax 802.11b/g 3G Router. It’s like your regular DSL router with additional USB ports to hook in a 3G modem and also acts as a Printer server.
If you have a regular DSL at home hooked up to a wireless router, you can use your SmartBro, Globe Visibility or Sun Wireless Broadband as alternative source of internet connection when the DSL goes down.
Not sure how much this one costs but it’s being sold at eBay.ph for Php3,900.
I’ll bring this on the road and set it up inside the car so we’ll see how it fares.
pwede po ba ito sa wi-tribe?

hi! need help, i just purchase a edimax nLITE 3G-6200n, can’t figure how to set-up this thing. i’m using Huawei E160. can anyone can help me on this router?
Same here but my modem Huawei is E1550, i can’t connect to my router to share it to my 8 pc,, I reall need help how to set this up.. TY
I would like to buy the 3G-6200n or 3G-6200wg, but i’m not sure if i is compatible with Huawei E156C.
The compability list in the site of Edimax is showed just the firmware v2.08 and don’t have information of the las version v2.09.
Can any enyone tell me something about this.
I suggest you just bring your 3g modem when buying it. Then try it out sa store bago bilhin…just to be sure… I just hope papayag ang store buksan ang product at i-test hehehe some stores dont allow it.
@Master dan: Can you post the weroam settings you used? I have a pldt weroam mf627 and I’ve updated my firmware. It can run a sun e1552 with minternet/fbband APN on *99# dial up number. Please help?!
PLDT WeRoam has a username and password: usually the username is pldt@weroam password is pldt, apn is weroam, at dial script is *99#
I’ve tried the settings but it didn’t work. It won’t connect, even on firmware 2.09. I even tried connecting the sim to the web on an huawei e-1552 usb modem but I’m having no luck. Any more ideas? I’ve ran out.
Thanks otie, i’ll try this too and feedback.
Tried the G-6200N using the smart bro USB modem (color white) and it works flawlessly. It’s Plug and Play, you just set up the WiFi for security ready to go ka na.
can you bridge the connection of dsl and 3g? is it possible to get 2 connection?
meron po akong ipod touch, pero wala po akong internet access s bahay po nmin. gusto ko po sna n internet access s ipod ko khit saan ako pumunta(like in lrt)..ung bang ilalagay ko n lng cya s bag ko tpos pwede ko ng gamitin ung ipod touch ko sa loob ng lrt o kahit saan!?..ang gagamitin po eh ung mga usb type broadband(prepaid)..pwede po ba ung gnitong setup!?..pra anytime pwede po akong mgbrowse s internet..kung posible po b ung ganitong setup, ano po b ang dapat kong bilhin?..
@ edward: I have an ipod touch too and the edimax 3G6200-WG is good enough for my room. I connected it with my Huawei E-1552 USB from Sun and it works nicely. I have upgraded the firmware to support my huawei device. Signal is okay over the 30sq mtr place where I stay. Maybe if you strategically locate it, it may cover a bigger area. Else, use a stronger receiving antenna.
@ Otie: I am still unable to use my Pldt weroam with my edimax router. I have tried downgrading the firmware but alas, that’s not the solution. Maybe the weroam given by the office is password protected and uses a different apn.
hi jbitpc! Where can I download the firmware to support the E1552? What is the firware version #?
First firmware upgrade ko un, matagal na, 2.05 pa yta, now on my second upgrade, it’s 2.09 on the edimax website.
For those wondering, the Netgear 3g Router MBR624GU product works fine with the Sun Broadband 3g service offered in the Philippines. Make sure you add all the updated firmwares. Since the item I purchased was from North America a power inverter was needed for the Phils or you risk blowing it’s power adapter. Unfortunately you cannot cross-flash firmwares from North America & Other(World Wide). I ended up using the North American firmwares and it worked okay. For Sun Broadband make sure you configure the 3g APN portion to: fbband
Rene anong model po ang ginamit ninyong sun broadband usb modem?
