Can you run a sat box using a dongle or 3g router? If so what is the connection like? Also post any links for 3g routers or dongles. Many thanks in advance.

im using this router and they have good after sales services to help ya get it up and running
EnGenius 3G Router NET-3G-ESR-6650 (http://www.solwise.co.uk/3g-routers-3g-esr-6650.htm)
the connection will depend on the type of signal the dongle is getting
mine works fine but i get a bit of glitching when the network is very busy
ie in the evnings when people are bored but its usually for about an hour is all maybe 2 but its not every evening either
telly is running fine now and heres my results

where are ya living in a town or countryside im in the countryside otherwise id have decent bb

Check out Draytek routers, these do the 3g and failover to 3g if your adsl fails.. very handy
