Make sure you have the O2 APN settings installed.
O2 APN settings
  • Name: o2 Internet.
  • APN: mobile.o2.co.uk (PAYG - payandgo.o2.co.uk)
  • Username: o2web (PAYG - payandgo)
  • Password: password.
  • MMS Proxy: 82.132.254.1.
  • MMS Port: 8080.
  • Authentification Type: PAP.
  • APN Type: internet+MMS. ( If an entry is required type a * on its own)

However, phone SIM cards are not designed to be used in routers and long term use may see the SIM disconnected.

Short term use in a portable device should be fine

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