Hi - Assuming you are in USA:


As of March 1, 2022, AT&T is no longer offering the 3g technology that powered your phone. Other US carriers will follow suit; T-Mobile in July, Verizon in December. This was done at the request of the FCC. There is nothing that we or Apple can do.


Here is AT&T's notification→https://www.att.com/ecms/dam/att/consumer/help/pdf/Devices-Working-on-ATT-Network-After-3G-Goes-Away.pdf
