4g Router

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.
