No data connection after activating SIMConnect

IMPORTANT: Do not delete SIMConnect from your phone at any time!

Cause:

  • Incorrect configuration of the APN, network problems or error in the configuration of the SIMConnect.
  • Activated the SIMConnect outside the coverage area of the contracted plan.

Step-by-step solution:

Step 1 - Verify APN Configuration

iOS:

  • Go to Configuration > Cellular network > SIMConnect > Cellular data network.
  • The value must be in the access point (APN) field: globaldata. If the APN name is missing, you must type: globaldata.
  • Leave the fields of User name and Password empty.

Android:

  • Go to Settings > Connections or Networks > Mobile Network > Access Point Names (APN).
  • Create a new access point (APN) or edit an existing one.
  • The access point (APN) field must have the value: globaldata.
  • Leave the fields of User name and Password empty.

Step 2 - Verify the SIMConnect configuration:

  • Make sure that the SIMConnect is active.
  • Make sure that the mobile data are active for the SIMConnect.
  • Make sure that the SIMConnect is selected as the default line for mobile data usage.

Step 3 - Reboot the device:

  • Turn your mobile device off and on to apply the changes.

Step 4 - Deactivate data on the main physical SIM (only if necessary):

  • This can help to ensure that the mobile device only uses the SIMConnect for data.

Step 5 - Contact technical support personnel:

  • If the problem persists after performing all of the above checks, there may be a service interruption or a problem with your contracted data plan.
  • Contact technical support staff for technical assistance.
