Fix a problem
If you’re having problems with Wi-Fi, try these troubleshooting steps.
Use Airplane mode

signals that could interfere with airplane communications.
Open quick settings and touch
to turn airplane mode on. This disables all wireless
connections (Wi‑Fi, voice and data for calls and text messages, Bluetooth). If permitted by your
airline, you can then turn Wi‑Fi
and/or Bluetooth back on during the flight. Other wireless
connections remain off.
Control data usage
Turn mobile data off/on
To toggle it on/off, swipe the
status bar down and touch

When you turn off data usage over your cellular network, you can still use data by connecting to
a
Wi-Fi network.
Cellular data must be ON if you want to:
• Receive or send multi-media messages
• Share your phone’s internet connection with other devices
Tip: Touch & hold
in
quick settings to switch between SIMs for mobile data.
Set data limit
Sometimes it's easy to exceed your data plan limit without realizing it. To avoid surprises, set a
usage warning that notifies you when you’re close to your limit, and set a usage limit that turns
