How do i use my pay monthly sim in a 4g Router

Jay81 — Tue, 04 Oct 2022 21:31:28 GMT

I have a pay monthly sim (with unlimited data included) that i wish to use in a 4g router but when i attempt to use this sim the router is telling me internet connectivity is not correct.

Do i have to get this enabled in a certain way or is there something i need to set up first to be able to use this.

@Jay81

In short you can't.

Only specific data only sims from O2 will work in routers and mifi devices etc.

What you could do is put the sim in a phone and use that as a hot spot.

Not sure how the Ts & Cs look for that though...

I have an EE unlimited 18 month contract. The SIM works perfectly on my standard router. Just FYI

@TinyTone Different networks different rules.

That's why people need to check terms and conditions before signing up to make sure their particular needs are met
