1. Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
2. Ensure that your software is up to date:
   1. Check for a carrier settings update.
   2. Check for an iOS software update.
      Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
3. If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
4. Reset the network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
5. Try to make or receive calls in another location.
6. Attempt to isolate to one network band:
   • If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE if possible and try again.
   • If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G if possible and try again.
7. Restore the phone as new.

Best of luck,

Mario
