Hello

I am new to this so forgive any stupid questions.  I really am at sea here.

I have been lent a 4GEE Router, Model D412C57.

I want one month of 4G broadband over Christmas as our usual regular Plusnet router is very slow - no fibre, never going to be.

So would the 4GEE Router take a pre-loaded EE Sim Card with £20 bundle of 150gb data/calls and Free Sim pin (a potential Ebay purchase) work together and would we get 150gb of decent internet?  (we have a fair-ish EE signal here - I have used this router when it was under contract with EE).

Many thanks for your replies.

Dunno what a free SIM pin is nor why you would need 1.

A valid EE pre-loaded data SIM should work in an EE mobile router, tho' it can't make calls.

Thank you for your response.

So, something like this would work? - https://ee.co.uk/mobile/pay-as-you-go-sim-only#

Yes, that's a PAYG SIM.

What you trying to buy off eBay?

Would the eBay sim work or is the official EE Sim the way to go?

Should do but how can I know? I'd prefer Amazon. You don't need a phone SIM with calls. Look out for "Pre-Paid EE Connected DATA SIMs".
