Currently Supported 3G USB Modems & Phones:

http://www.draytek.co.uk/products/3g_solutions.html

I have used the HUAWEI E160 - this is sold as the T-Mobile Mobile Broadband USB Stick 110 - strangely available from Halfords! http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_731861_langId_-1_categoryId_226213

and also Asda Direct: http://direct.asda.com/T-Mobile-USB-Modem-Stick/008711753,default,pd.html?cm_mmc=gb-_-merch-_-406112-_-300004803

Or Argos for something like the Vodafone Mobile Connect - a K3565 http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/5490835/Trail/searchtext%3EMOBILE+BROADBAND.htm I've got this working on the newer models such as 2955 and 2820 but the 2800 is too elderly. This Vodafone model doesn't seem to be officially listed with Draytek, but it worked ok for me.

Regards,

Neal.

I have two dongles. Both Huawei, an E160 (dongle) and an E220 (short cable) that I got from T-Mobile on Pre-pay, no contract (day, week or month at a time - you choose). Both work great with the 2820.

Any current updates on this? I bought a payg dongle from Voda today, and it didn't work whilst it was fine attached directly to a PC. Stupidly I didn't note model and left it in the office.

Contact support with the exact model no. - Lots of models are supported but the list may not be updated.

Will do, for the benefit of others it is a K3570-Z. As I said, it works fine on a pc, and the 2820 sees it, but can't seem to sort it out.
