    Hi ​@Stemac1982 

     

    Thanks for your question and sorry if this isn’t the answer you were hoping for.

     

    We don’t recommend using an iD Mobile SIM in a Wi-Fi dongle or similar device. Our plans are designed for use in mobile phones, and using the SIM this way isn’t supported and may not work as expected (this is also outlined in our terms and conditions).

     

    In addition, it isn’t possible to have both a physical SIM and an eSIM active on the same iD Mobile account at the same time. You can only have one active SIM per plan — either a physical SIM or an eSIM, not both simultaneously.

     

    If you’re looking to use data across multiple devices, you’d need a separate plan for each device.

     

    Hope that clears things up
