which router for 4G + Media Server

[kishork]

i am looking for a wireless router for below needs:

4G USB dongle support (Huawei E392)

Wireless >300 mpbs support

Act as DLNA Media Server for media on Hard Disk which will be on USB (meaning two USB ports minumum - 1 for 4G USB Dongle and 1 for Hard Disk ?)

DSL / 4G failover support (meaning i should be able to set DSL as my default provider and failover to 4G if DSL stops and revert back to DSL when DSL restores back (very bad connectivity of DSL ISP here) or should be able to select 4G specifically etc.)

​

I searched on DLink, LinkSys, NetGear, Asus but it is very confusing what to buy (either they have N300 but not 4G and if 4G then not media server etc.)..

please help what are the good options which can meet above requirements..

Best router with cellular (3G/4G-LTE) is one in Cradlepoint's line. The MBR900 is a good one for residential use.
I've used them on the job and at home. Falls over to cellular if wired WAN port quits. Or can be cellular only.
Some deals on them on eBay - I have an older one I found there like-new for $65. Used now for several years.
They just run and run without rebooting, e.g., on the job, they are used in unattended situations like M2M, libraries.

I don't think these support USB/DLNA - and I don't recommend it for any WiFi router - as the CPU is too slow to do all that file system I/O. Better to have a small NAS.

Also can use WiFi as the WAN connection.

thanks stevech..

i kind of realize that USB and MediaServer capabilities are my needs in this router..

i am towards ASUS AC66U kind of thing and i realize AC68U is about to come in few days.. so now will be waiting for that.. i believe that is the best as per what i read on it..

but that is costly.. any other reasonable cost suggestions..
