Re: Just bought an e3531 internet dongle & PAYG sun but can’t get a Wi-fi co

I have just bought a dongle from Argos.  A D-Link with 6GB pre loaded.  I have not been able to get a signal and assumed it was because I had to 'register' the sim card.  However I have been unable to find out how to do this on the web site and trying to phone has been impossible.  

 

Some advice would be appreciated.

Hi @Sdredim,

 

Welcome to the EE Community. 🙂

 

Your pay as you go SIM should be ready to use. What happens when you try to connect to the internet?

 

Thanks

@Sdredim : What model D-Link is it?

 

What does texting AL to 150 from it fully report verbatim?

Hi,  when I try to get on the internet I am connected but no internet.  I have checked that I have a signal but EE report no problems for my post code.

You may not have a data connection but you can still send a text. Have you tried sending 1?

Hi @Sdredim

 

Thanks for coming back to us.

 

Do you have a phone you can try the SIM card in at all?

 

Where did you purchase the device?

 

Leanne.
