i have found that EE, whilst providing good mobile broadband service, it thinks by entering the mobile phone number of the mobile router sim, that i will be able to read a message or pass code/key. I do not have an EE phone, just mobile broadband since 2019.

@Biffo1960 : & so you can! Most mobile routers can receive texts & reply to them. Login to it & look for the SMS Section/Inbox.

@Biffo1960 : You are logging into the router itself, not your EE a/c. in order to read the passcode sent by your EE a/c. No passcode is needed to login to the router.
Login to your MBB router at 192.168.1.1 with username/pwd as "admin"/"admin" or with the admin password found under the battery cover.

@Biffo1960 : The site in question is your own router on your desk whatever. It's perfectly safe!

@Biffo1960 : Cuz it don't! You haven't even said which mobile router. It could be behind-the-times.
Sorry, can't proceed any further when you can't venture into your own router. Security s/ware allow you to specify exceptions.
