Recommend a 3G router

In our region, 3G-networks of mobile operators have quite decently earned. I would like to purchase a 3G router to distribute the Internet to other devices without using a computer, but preferably without WiFi (since there is not a single device with it and is not expected), but only with ethernet.

I searched on ebay, everything is either only with WiFi, or they also have ethernet, but only for distribution from it (WAN, if I understand correctly). Or relatively expensive ones like this one

In the example provided, there is a usb port where you can install your modem.
Do you need it to be like this?
In this price range, all cheap dlink-type routers (dir 120). You can get it cheap.
Or is it required that 3g be already implemented in the router itself?

You can search Asus's WL-500 (for example WL-500W) from the hands, yes WiFi is also there, but there are 4 outputs for RJ45. With code.google.com/p/wl500g/ firmware or with DD-WRT everything will be fine, on the example 500W there are two USBs, you plug a 3G modem into one, nothing or a printer into the second, say.

Thanks to everyone, if the Chinese haven’t come up with anything ready, I’ll probably stop at DIR-120, for me this is the most acceptable option.

I have this one for $35 - ASUS WL-330N3G
or take it - for 22 USD and sew dd-wrt

I was also puzzled by this question, here's what I found from the budget options:
TP-LINK TL-MR3020
TP-LINK TL-MR3220

I have Huawei E560. Great router! I bought for 3.5 thousand rubles. With a built-in unlocked 3G modem, you won't find it cheaper. On July 8th I will publish a review here, it is already ready.

So, a week after this question, I took a DIR-620 from a colleague, which, for the time being, was simply gathering dust for him. Firmware from Keenetic, completely Russian (at the same time, I didn’t expect it to be done correctly), I’ve been using it for three weeks. In the firmware, the only thing that does not work is the wi-fi client (but I don’t need it, I just tested it).
It works fine with the modem, the link rises in 10-15 seconds after power is applied. I didn’t notice the breaks either (it seems like it automatically reconnects).
Modem - huawei E1550, MTS operator with an unlimited tariff.
The only thing left is to exchange it for something with a colleague :)
