TROUBLESHOOTING

When data
does not come up.

Work through install, radio, and sharing issues in that order. Most failures are an unused line, a plan that has not started, or a hotspot that never received the package.

eSIM

Profile will not install

Use a stable Wi-Fi network, keep the QR or install code, and confirm the phone is unlocked. Delete a failed incomplete profile only after you have the original details.

SIGNAL

Installed, but no data

Turn on the travel line, enable data roaming if the issuer requires it, and wait for a local network. Airplane mode toggled on and off can force a fresh attach.

HOTSPOT

Device has no plan

Confirm the plan was assigned to this device ID. Power-cycle the hotspot, check battery, and reconnect clients to the correct Wi-Fi name.

SHARING

Phone will not tether

Many travel eSIMs limit hotspots. If tethering is blocked, a portable Wi-Fi device is the practical fix, not another toggle in Settings.

APN

Manual APN needed

Some SIMs and routers need the issuer’s APN. Do not guess values from another brand. Use the details that came with the plan.

SPEED

Slow after a threshold

Fair-use policies can reduce speed after heavy use. Check remaining data and whether a top-up is available.

STILL STUCK

Send the error, not just “it does not work.”

Include device model, destination, screenshots of the error, and whether the plan has started. That is enough for a useful support pass.
