How to find BE9300 Tri band wifi router IMEI?
I'm trying to find the IMEI number that's associated with my router I don't see it on the router itself, on the app or when I log in to Netgear as an admin. Does anybody know where to find the IMEI if...
NG routers do not have a IMEI number. Only cell phones do.
- So if I want to check if the BE9300 router is compatible with Verizon business wifi you are saying I can't check if it's compatible since the router doesn't have an IMEI to input when prompted by Verizon to put one in?
If the internet you're looking into requires a SIM card (mobile internet), you'll need a hotspot like the Netgear Nighthawk M6/Pro. If the internet you're looking into doesn't require a SIM card, you do not need an IMEI number whatsoever.
As mentioned, the RS series does not have cell service support. It requires a ethernet connection from ISPs such as cable, DSL or Fiber. If you need a cell servicing supporting router, then check into NGs MR series of routers that have this feature:

I don't know of any RS series that are sim card compatible (yet) but something could have been released.
- The one i have is the Nighthawk BE9300 tri-band router WiFi 7
