So, you got yourself an MTN 5G router? That’s great! It’s fast, reliable, and makes streaming, gaming, and working from home a breeze. But like any internet plan, you need to keep an eye on your data balance to avoid running out at the worst possible time (like during a live football match or an important Zoom meeting!).

Method 1: Using the MTN USSD Code

This is the easiest way to check your router’s data balance. The good news? You don’t even need to remove the SIM card from your router. You just need a phone linked to the router’s SIM. Here’s how:

    • Dial *131*500# on your phone.
    • Select Option 1 (Link Device) and send.
    • Enter the phone number of the SIM inside the router (e.g., 080XXXXXXXX).
    • You’ll get a confirmation message saying the linking was successful.
  2. Check your data balance
    • Dial *131*500# again.
    • Select Option 4 (Check Device Balance) or Option 3 (Broadband Balance).
    • Choose your router’s number from the list.
