Hi,

I live in a remote area, which is causing me to have problems with my wired internet access, routed through a recently purchased Archer C8. I'm investigating alternative intent access options as a stop gap while I find a longer term solution,and am interested in using a 3G sim and modem to access the internet. As I have the C8 nicely routing my home network and I'm making the most of the dual band for sharing between devices on the network, I'm keen to retain the C8's position in the network, acting as interface between home network and wider internet.

My question is: Can i use the C8's USB ports (either 2.0 or 3.0) to access the internet over 3G, with a USB modem?

Thanks
