I believe nothing has changed in this area but there are options available. I believe you need a special router that can handle usb connection.

My router is the Cradlepoint MBR-1000 which has a USB port for connection to a phone or USB Broadband adapter. I can connect my phone to the router and the router uses it as the gateway sharing the internet connection to either wired or wireless devices connected to the network... It works but is a bit to slow for me... Maybe 4G will change this though...
