Nighthawk lte mobile hotspot router

I am attempting to find the ssid number for my router.  I'd like to connect my smart tv to the wireless connection but the tv isn't picking it up.  It's asking for me to enter the ssid directly to connect

    The default SSID is on the label on the router.

     

    If it has been changed, then it will be the same wifi "label" or "network name" that a mobile phone sees.

     

    It is not a number, so what is your TV looking for?

    Smart TVs can be some of the the dumbest things around. What makes is yours?

     

    The TV should be able to see the SSID.
