Router with 3G support for FTTC

I'm due to have FTTC installed in my new property in the next few weeks, but I'm looking for a router I can use that has support for a secondary 3G connection, mostly to keep me online while I wait for the FTTC to go live.
IPv6 and VPN support would be a bonus, and I'm quite happy to look for alternative firmware to achieve this. Dual band WiFi would be preferable, too.
I don't require media server/storage options.
Any suggestions?

Not cheap but I have one that's no longer is use (not updated yet to the IPv6 firmware though) - open to offers.
At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.

Ask if you can have yours sent out early - I did this but then it didn't have a USB port, d'oh!

They do support some of them, yes, but I'm afraid we don't know which ones and don't have any we can test. Just a case of trial and error I'm afraid.

But I'm slightly reluctant to spend so much on a router that I don't require half of the features.

My local PC World has them for £109, which seems like a decent price.

If you can identify your own dongle as one of the above I would have thought the PN router would be worth a try.

I'm going to head down PC World a little bit later and pickup an N66U and a 3G Dongle, I think.
