Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Starting from 11 Aug 2023 my iPhone 11 had no service. I have not taken note when it was upgraded to IOS16.6 but current I am suspecting that is the cause.
Things I have tried so far:
Anything else I could try? The nearest Apple store is miles away... Really want to exhaust all options before going to the store.

Tow more suggestions:
1) Call Apple and see if they have any additional suggestions.
2) Call your carrier just to make sure there isn't a service issue in your area.

Thanks for your reply.
Followed all suggestions listed. Reset Network settings did not solve the problem. The SIM works on another iPhone with an older version of iOS, i.e. not a network issue, a service provider coverage issue, or a physical issue with the SIM.
