  • (most common) - the LTE signal in the area is not strong enough to connect to internet. Try moving to a different location.

  • The LTE service for your device is turned off due to a previous membership cancellation and needs to be reactivated. Contact support if you believe this is the issue.

  • (rare, but possible) The LTE module is damaged or malfunctioned on the device and needs repaired. Contact support if you believe this is the issue.
