=== Inserting a SIM into a dongle === 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~~ tray from the dongle, fit the SIM into the tray and reinsert it into the dongle. === Configuration and testing === ==Working 3G Dongles== Dongles do vary, and drivers may need to be written to support a particular dongle. Contact us if you have one which is not working. The following dongles are known to work on a FireBrick 2700: Huawei E156G (Available from AAISP, Amazon etc) [[Zoom USB dongle\|ZOOM model 4598]] (Discontinued) Huawei E353 (Three branding) ==Working 4G Dongles== [[FireBrick 2700 with 4G ZTE MF823\|ZTE 823]] (O2 branding, or direct from Amazon etc work) — ~~click~~this ~~the~~dongle ~~link~~appears onto ~~the~~work ~~dongle~~"out ~~name~~of the box" for ~~the~~failover, but needs [[FireBrick 2700 with 4G ZTE MF823\|specific configuration]] ~~information~~if ~~for~~you ~~this~~want to route your IP blocks through it. The FireBrick will get an IP address via DHCP from the dongle, eg 192.168.8.100 *Huawei E3372 - cheaper than the ZTE MF823, available from Amazon and others. In ethernet mode (its default) it works with a factory FireBrick configuration. The FireBrick will get an IP address via DHCP from the dongle, eg 192.168.0.123 ==Unknown not yet working==
