Find your IMEI number

Your IMEI is on the label on the modem module, or in the modem dashboard under Support Tools. Here's where to look.

The short answer

Your IMEI identifies the cellular modem inside your antenna. You'll find it two ways: on the label on the modem module, or in the modem dashboard under Support Tools. Grab whichever is easiest.

On the modem label

The IMEI is the first/top number on the sticker on the modem module — the part inside your antenna.

In the modem dashboard

No label handy? Read it off the screen:

  1. Open the modem/antenna dashboard at http://192.168.225.1 — or, from your router dashboard, tap Modem/Antenna Dashboard.
  2. Open Support Tools (in the Tools row).
  3. Your IMEI is near the top of that page.
Support Tools shows sensitive IDs — keep them privateThat page also lists your ICCID, IMSI, and other IDs. Only ever share these with Insty support — never post them publicly or in a forum.
Don't see an IMEI on that page?Your modem just needs an update. The next time it's connected to an active internet source it'll update on its own; or tap Software Update — but that only works while the antenna has a live cellular connection.
