I have an EE Pay as you go data only sim 4G for use in a mobile Wifi hub. How many devices can I connect to it at the same time?

Thanks in advance

@DollyD : Those things you mentioned are not pwds. You need the WiFi pwd of the router (nowt to do with SIM) which should written on a label on it or under the battery or SIM cover. Not familiar with that mobile router.

 

EDIT: Found something:

Connect your wi-fi devices using the network name and password shown on the password card. This is included in the box. If you can't find it:
- If your Mini Hub has a screen on the front, press the menu button twice, then the power button once. You should see the Wi-fi username (SSID) and password (PWD) on the screen. 

- If your Hub has a BT logo on the front, just remove the back cover and you’ll find a sticker showing the network name and password

@DollyD : As many as the router will bear which is probably 10 - 20.

Thanks for the prompt reply. Here's the problem...I have the SIM card in a BT Mini Hub. I am successfully connected with one device (Fire tablet) but when I try to connect my laptop or a second tablet or Alexa I am asked for the password and neither the mobile number, PUK or PIN are correct. What am I doing wrong ?:(

OMG thank you, that worked. I could go on with a lengthy explanation but we will just agree I'm an idiot.

Thanks again, have a good day 🙂
