I have put £10 credit on my PAYG sim purchased today to get 7GB of data to test the O2 signal for broadband I put my Sim into a HUAWEI 4G Router 3 Prime B818-263.  The router recognises the sim and signal strength and that its 4G on the UK O2 network but give no data connection.  Any suggestions please?

O2 don't allow standard SIM cards in routers

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

@SeanMc 

It should still work for a short period of time.

You need to check you have the correct apn set for O2 Mobile in the router settings.

Name : o2 mobile web

APN : payandgo.o2.co.uk

Proxy, Port  : Please leave blank

Username - payandgo

Password - password

Server - Please leave blank

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
