To insert a SIM into a Huawei 3G dongle, for example, you will need to have a large-size SIM, so do not pop out a small-size SIM from its enclosing card. You remove a SIM-carrier tray from the dongle, fit the SIM into the tray and reinsert it into the dongle.

The 2700 and 2900 models have a USB port that can be used with a 3G dongle for connectivity and/or fallback. The FireBrick 2500 does not have a USB port. By using a 3G dongle with one or more FTTC/ADSL lines from AAISP you'll be able to fall back to using 3G in the case of the FTTC/ADSL going down - this includes routing of your public IPv4 blocks and IPv6 blocks (IPv6 via a tunnel). Note: 4G dongles may have a problem with routing public IPs to the FireBrick as they act as a NAT device. In these cases using a L2TP tunnel will enable the IPs to be routed.
