Modem / Router by IMEI?
You will find here information about how to unlock your Alcatel or EE osprey modem/router by unlock code, you do not need any IT knowlege or install any additional software, I will explain here in few words what you will need to do to obtain the unlock code and how to enter the code and unlock your modem.
Firstly I do NOT offer free unlock codes on this website or free code calculators, You can try your luck and do some research but there are many many fake unlock code calculators that genrate wrong codes, when you enter the wrong code to many times, your modem will be PERMANENTLY LOCKED and even the correct code will not help in that case.
So if you do not want to waste your time or permanently LOCK your modem, you can obtain your code on ebay for only GBP 0.99 Yes its only 99p so is it worth to waste your time and possibly permanetly LOCK your modem?
well the choice is yours ! :)

if it does say invalid simcard and it doesn't ask for a code
- make sure that every time you are changing the simcard device is powered of
- make sure that simcard you are using is active and its dedicated for mobile broadband devices, some phone simcards doesn't work on those devices
- if you have the right simcard and it does seat correctly in the simcard slot power up your device and press and hold RESET button for around 15 sec then switch off your modem and power back on ... now it should detect the simcard correctly
