The DOVADO router portfolio specifically caters for mobile broadband subscribers worldwide. The routers support a wide range of different USB modems for technologies such as GPRS, EDGE, WCDMA, HSPA+ and CDMA2000 1xEV-DO.

As the routers are upgradeable in terms of firmware (software that operates within the router), we at DOVADO are continuously working on applying support for new modems, features and fixes to our router portfolio.

The comparison table below will assist you in selecting the right router for your needs.

The key difference between routers with a single USB port and those with 2 USB ports is that it is possible to use features such as:
• Home Automation
• GPS Tracking/Positioning
• Up to 1A (ampere) of electrical current towards USB modem

A single USB port outputs 500mA of electrical current. Certain elder models of USB modems (such as the Huawei E220 and Huawei E270) shipped out with a "Y"-shaped USB cable that could be fed by two USB ports to provide optimal electrical current since they worked best at around 700mA.

To find out whether or not your USB modem requires additional power, simply check your USB modem's packing box to see if there is such a "Y"-cable with two USB connectors on one end.
