Check for Coverage in Your Area

When you restart the device, it will load back all the important tools and drivers needed to function properly.

Check Your Connection Settings

Go to your phone settings and make sure your phone is not set to airplane mode. Also, check your connections and make sure your phone is trying to connect to the right provider and that the username and password have not been changed.

Is There an Outage in Your Area?

There are times when the problem lies in an area outage. Contact your network provider to see if there is an outage in your area or check the DISH wireless website. If there is an outage, DISH will note this on their website along with when the internet should be accessible again.

Are You Out of Data?

Some plans may come with unlimited minutes, but that doesn't mean you also have unlimited data. Click here to contact a customer supper specialist at DISH wireless to see what your plan covers. If you are out of data, you can always add more to your plan. Is your problem due to your internet being too slow? This can mean that your high-speed data has run out.
