I bought a new unlimitted data SIM for my 4G router - model  tp-link AC1200 Archer MR600.  The sim works fine in a phone but will not get a data connection for the internet in the router.  Somebody posted a similar question and reply said it was a problem with APN settings but for a different make.  Any help very gratefully received.  Thanks

You can only use a data only sim in a router.

O2 will block phone sims from working.

You can try the apn settings but I doubt it will work for long.

Settings the same as posted here https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Android-Devices-Samsung-HTC-Sony/Connecting-Android-Phone-to-Data-Serv...
