Basic Checks:

If cellular data access is unavailable, please visit the Android or iPhone Data Settings link below to ensure your device is configured correctly –

Android Data Settings
iPhone Data Settings

Please note that our products do not support international roaming and so if you have not yet arrived in Japan, this will be the cause of the connection issue.

If there is a secondary SIM / eSIM installed in your device, please also ensure that your Mobal SIM / eSIM is selected as the primary for cellular data access (this option is usually found within the SIM Management menu on your device).

If cellular data access is available but the connection is slow, please refer to the information found here: Speed Issues

Additional Troubleshooting:

If cellular data access is still unavailable, this may indicate that there was an issue with the installation of the APN (Access Point Name) profile or that there are conflicting settings on your device from another service.

To resolve the issue, please try following the steps below and let us know if any issues persist –

iPhone Handsets:

1. Reset the Network Settings by going to: Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
