Hi

My partner has a payg wifi router for when he is out and about but is struggling to figure out how to check how much data he has left - he knows how to top up just not how to check data - any help

Hi 

My partner has an EE paye 4g wifi mobile dongle which he uses when out and about but he is struggling to check how much data is left on it. He can go to the page to top up but cannot see any options to check data - any help

He should look at his online MyEE a/c.

Hi @alili 

Welcome to the community.

As @XRaySpeX said, your partner can check their remaining data allowance through his My EE account.

He can't as it won't let him register the mobile number on his ee account as it needs to send a code

Hi @alili,

Welcome to the EE Community

What you need to do when registering your number is load up 192.168.1.1 on a device connected to the 4G router. This will take you to the admin page of the router. 

It depends on which model you have, but the admin password to login should be either on the back/bottom of the router and also on the keep me card that came with the router.

Once you are logged in you can see the text messages that the number has received, so you can then send and confirm the PIN to get the online account linked up to allow the data allowances to be tracked.

Most mobile routers can receive texts & reply to them. Login to it & look for the SMS Section/Inbox.

Another way to see how much data is left is by visiting http://add-on.ee.co.uk/status from a device connected to your mobile router by WiFi to see your data & credit status as well as its mobile no. at the top.
