We use the Cradlepoint 1400 but for most people the MBR 95 will work as well. Both support Wifi as WAN so they can be used with a USB modem like you mentioned and also used with a mifi device. Cradlepoint provides ongoing support with firmware updates for newly released modems and their modems provide important configuration options.
The MBR 1400 we use has a data usage monitoring capability that we need as we use Verizon through Millenicom and have no other way to know at any given point in time how much our usage has been. We had 6 hours notice we had exceeded the cap with Verizon and we were shut down for the remainder of the billing cycle. Now we use the 1400 and it sends us an alert when usage is at 75% of our cap (user configurable as to the billing period, cap, and alert set point).
Cradlepoint makes the best routers for use with cellular data modems. You only need to decide between the MBR95 and the MBR1400 routers.
