Hi there kathyyy1999,


If I understand correctly you are unable to connect to your cellular provider after resetting your network settings. I would use the troubleshooting for that specific issue in the following article, named:


If you can't connect to a cellular network or cellular data

If you see No Service or Searching on your device, or can't connect to a cellular network or cellular data, follow these steps:

  1. Check your coverage area to make sure you're in an area with cellular network coverage.
    - If you can't connect to a cellular network, make sure cellular data is on in Settings > Cellular.
    - If you're traveling internationally, make sure your device is set up for data roaming. Go to Settings > Cellular > Data Roaming.
  2. Restart your iPhone or iPad.
  3. Check for a Carrier Settings Update.
  4. Remove the SIM card then reinsert it. If the SIM card is damaged, worn, or bent, or doesn't fit in the SIM tray, contact your carrier.
  5. Try another location. If possible, see if other devices are able to connect to your carrier's network in that location.
  6. Contact your carrier to:
  7. Update your iPhone or iPad to the latest version of iOS.
  8. If you can't connect to a cellular network, make sure cellular data is on in Settings > Cellular.
  9. If you're traveling internationally, make sure your device is set up for data roaming. Go to Settings > Cellular > Data Roaming.

  10. Verify that your account is active and in good standing.
  11. Make sure there are no outages in your area.
  12. Check that your device is not blocked from receiving cellular services and set up with the right data plan.


If you still can't connect to a cellular network, and have confirmed with your carrier that there isn't an issue with your account or network, try restoring your device.


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
