Do all SIM cards work in a 4G router?
Jan 18,2024 | Views: 258
In general, SIM cards are designed to work with various devices, including 4G routers. However, there are a few factors to consider:
Compatibility: Ensure that the 4G router supports the same type of SIM card as the one you have. Common types include standard SIM, micro SIM, and nano SIM.
Network Compatibility: Different 4G routers may support different frequency bands. Make sure that the router and the SIM card are compatible with the 4G network frequencies available in your region.
SIM Lock: Some 4G routers may be locked to a specific carrier, meaning they only work with SIM cards from that carrier. Check if your router is locked and if it is, you may need to unlock it before using a different SIM card.
