I would guess you'd need the o2 sim into log onto the o2 page?

try 192.168.1.1. No matter what sim is in there it should still take you to this page as long as your connected to the device.

 

you should then be able to unlock from there.

That will take you to the host page of the sim in the device though won't it?

Yes it will, but from there it should allow to unlock.  It shouldn't make a difference what sim is in m the o2 page will just show invalid sim etc.  

 

But it it should allow to browse to next page,  I've known issues when you just click on the home page or just try to access it with the www part.

 

I've unlocked one by that and also a three mifi similar. .

 

if it still doesn't work then I'm affraid that u have to place a o2 sim in and choose the unlock from the menus,  but I'm hoping the other way should work ok

 

do let us know

There's a help video here on youtube but it requires a laptop to do it.
