3G Network in Mauritius

Hi,
I'm running an online business and I'm planning to live in Mauritius for a while. But I'm concerned about the time required to arrange an ADSL Internet connection for the house that I will rent. I guess it takes more than a month, but I will need it immediately. So I will have to use 3G from Emtel or Orange to get online as soon as I get to the island.

This issue has critical importance for me. Please help! 
Cheers,
Ozgur

Cheers and good luck
