Simple questions:


Did you migrate the SIM? SIM is how the carrier signal knows where to go.


If the new phone was ordered with carrier service (the carrier signal going to the old phone) then the new phone may have an eSIM already installed ... and if the old SIM was not removed from the old phone the "confusion" may result in the carrier signal going to old.


I suggest taking both phones to a carrier office and have them verify these items.
