Hi,
Does PM (or telus in general) allow us to use our SIM card in a 4g router device? I've been using the hotspot feature on my phone but it drains the battery fast. I picked up a 4g router that supported the same bands as public mobile and it reads the SIM fine, tells me my phone number, etc. However it never gets a connection. I've done deep diving on the forums and the APN is set right, and I've even changed the DNS server to a oublic mobile one.
At this point I assume it's blocked by the carrier. Anyone know?

It looks like it’s not supported, but I can’t say that for sure.
Sometimes, I used my old unused phone as a hotspot and keep it plugged in.
