Travel eSIM not connecting? Check these settings first
Confirm you have arrived in a covered destination, the plan is active, the travel eSIM is enabled and selected for data, and roaming is set as the provider directs. Network registration may take a short time.
Before you go
Restart the device or select a supported network manually only when the plan instructions recommend it. Do not remove the profile unless support confirms reinstallation is available.
- Open the plan’s QR or manual activation instructions before setup.
- If data does not work, first check that the line is on and selected for mobile data.
- Change the APN only when the provider gives you an exact value.
If the instructions don’t match your phone
Menu names move between software versions. Follow the current manufacturer guide for your phone, then use the eSIM provider’s plan-specific steps for network settings.
