If you continue to experience issues despite taking these steps there may be a compatibility issue with the networks you're attempting to join.

Take care.

Thank you Drew. All my settings are correct.


The issue is when I am outside my home. I was at Quest Diagnostics, and I was trying to sign in for my appointment on my phone. Quest texts a link to tap on to sign you in for your appointment. I got a no internet connection when I tapped on the link. No one else in the waiting room had a problem connecting with the internet.


Later when I was in Whole Foods, I could not connect to the internet at all.


Might need to call my mobile provider.


Thanks for your help!
