I updated yesterday to iOS 15.5 and now I am unable to receive any SMS texts. I no longer can get a text needed for two factor authentication and texts from contacts I have that do not use iMessage are not coming through.

Hello ~ Have you contacted your carrier? Did you force restart your iPhone?

I was working the problem from both angles and I just got off the phone with my carrier (Xfinity Mobile). She reset something and they have fixed the problem. YAY! Thank you so much for responding to my problem.
I have reviewed all those issues and still no SMS texts come through. It's interesting that under Cellular Data Options in iOS 15.5 there is no indication of what cellular network technology I am using. Previously my phone indicated I was using LTE...now I wouldn't know as option not indicated. In the past when I had this problem I had to disable VoLTE and select LTE to receive SMS texts. I don't know why that worked but it did.
Hello again ~ Good work and you are welcome.
