Wireless router with a 3G dongle and multiwan for failover on Wired, Wireless client (routed) and 3G
Please check 3gdongle
With this recipe you can create a wireless router which is connected to either a wired, a wireless or a 3G wireless connection. The multiwan package is used to do the failover between the three WAN variants.
I have this running on a ASUS WL-500g Premium v1 with an Atheros wireless card. The 3G dongle is a K3565-Z from Vodafone. Latest Backfire is used and build by myself from subversion without a WebUI.

Building OpenWrt
svn checkout svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/branches/backfire wl-500gpv1
Backport the 6in4 package to Backfire:
svn export svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk/package/6in4 package/6in4; svn add package/6in4
Checkout the packages feed and symlink (install in menuconfig) only usb-modeswitch, usb-modeswitch-data, usbutils and multiwan packages from the packages feed.
./scripts/feeds update packages ./scripts/feeds install usb-modeswitch usb-modeswitch-data usbutils multiwan
Now run make menuconfig and select at least the packages in the list below.
- Target System: Broadcom BCM947xx/953xx
- Target Profile: ASUS WL-500g Premium v1 (Atheros WiFi)
- Base System
- qos-scripts: <*>
- Network
- multiwan: <*>
- wpad: <*>
- Kernel modules
- USB Support
- kmod-usb-serial: <*>
- kmod-usb-serial-option: <*>
- Utilities
- comgt: <*>
- usb-modeswitch: <*>
- usb-modeswitch-data: <*>
- usbutils: <*>
Finally run make to build OpenWrt Backfire.
