DONGLE ACCOUNT - UNLOCK AND ACTIVATE

Morning all

 

I had a Dongle device 4GEE WIFI MINI, back to 2017 that I have not use it anymore since then.

But now that I'm going to take a short vacation in a place where there is no internet, I thought I could reactivate this Dongle device again, through EE.
How can I do it once I still have the Sim number but I guess it is disabled?

Thank you

AB

Thanks! You're welcome 🙂 ! Glad I could be of assistance.

 

  1. Yes, the mobile router will still work. It's the SIM that would've expired.
  2. Yes, the network name & pwd are set by the mobile router, not the SIM.
  3. You should certainly be able to use it in the EU.
  4. It's up to you, PAYG or contract. Depends on how much data you need.

@AB1964 : You just need to get a new EE SIM to use it.

Morning Xray

Thank you for the replay.

Just that?

After buying the SIM should I use the previous network name and password to connect, do you know ?

And I can't remember if I can used abroad ?

Thanks

Sorry me again.

 

Do you recommend to buy a PAYG SIM card, i.e. 60GB and top up as needed ?

Thanks
