How come I cannot connect to internet using my 3G Pen in Router?! Only get local connection!!?
I am going crazy!! I want to use my Huwei 3G internet pen from Movistar in Spain, to provide me with both internet for laptop and PS3. I was recommended to buy a 3G Ready Wireless Router, which I've bought. It is made by sitecom. I have followed every instruction per manual and it does not connect properly. I can only get local connection, although it has full strength of wireless. Therefore, I cannot use the internet or surf the net or play PS3 online. I think it is because I don't have the correct Movistar details, such as username and password, but I spoke to them and they provided the details. After entering them on 192.168.0.1, it is meant to reboot in order to work, and then I am advised to go onto website www.sitecomrouter.com and it is meant to work....but mine remains on local connection only and I cannot do anything. I don't know what else to do...I am convinced the answer is very easy to work out but as I am not that hot on computers I don't know. The red light is staying on the router as well, which I don't think is a good sign. Please can someone advise me! Thank you.

Answer 1 :
Is the light on the huwei flashing or staying on. I have one and when it is connected the light is on (green:2g, blue:3g) but when its not connected it just flashes green. Maybe the router does not support your 3g modem? This would be a problem because the router needs the software to automatically connect the modem to the Internet. With my router it is possible to upgrade its software by logging on to the router and going into settings. Only problem is you have to download the update and upload it to the router, so you'd have to put the 3g modem into your computer and download the file first
