Can’t send SMS to non iPhone users

My iPhone XS Max plus won’t send SMS to non iPhone users. I thought maybe it was the device but my work phone (iPhone 6) won’t either so I have to assume the network or WiFi is the problem. I have tried doing it both ways. I have reset phone and network and still no resolve. Any help?
