Question is similar to Will my USB modem send my MAC address to my ISP? but not exacly.

I have router dwr-116 and usb 4G modem which is connected to this router.

Will ISP see dwr-116 mac address? or will ISP see only 4g modem IMEI ?

I think that ISP will see only 4g modem IMEI but maybe i'm wrong?

    your ISP will see your modem's ID, though, so it doesn't matter if they can or cannot see the router's MAC - everything is still tied to the modem – schroeder Oct 12 '17 at 10:39

No. ISP cant see MAC address of your router. MAC is a layer 2 address which exist within the network only.

And yes, your ISP will see only the IMEI.
