Most likely, the device stopped catching the network due to internal faults electronic components. This will require professional diagnostics of the device, which will help determine the type of repair needed.

Types of repairs

Often diagnosis Apple devices, which have stopped catching the net, reveals oxidation of the internal elements of the smartphone as a result of moisture. If you often use your phone outside in adverse weather conditions, this situation is quite possible. Also, device diagnostics may indicate the need for the following measures.

Sometimes users encounter this problem while traveling, using roaming, after... hardware repair(replacing the battery or display) of a smartphone or a long period of inactivity (without recharging) - the operator logo disappears on the iPhone and there is no connection to cellular network. Let's try to figure out what causes the “breakdown” in such cases and how to fix it.

The problem is aggravated by the fact that employees of service centers in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, etc. are not always able to identify the real reason lack of connection to the cellular network (or deliberately hide it) and perform a number of expensive procedures - ranging from simple iOS reinstallation and ending with hardware repairs using a soldering iron and other “jewelry” tools.

Check if the SIM card is working?

Unfortunately, SIM cards also fail. Therefore, first of all, check whether the SIM card works in your iPhone. This can be done, for example, by installing a SIM card in another smartphone.

What to do if instead of the operator on the iPhone it says “no network” or the smartphone does not see the SIM card after repair (flashing)

If the problem described above occurs, first of all you need to look at set time- if the smartphone does not display the current time and date correctly, then you need to perform the following simple algorithm of actions:

1 . Connect your device to active Wi-Fi networks;

2 . Go to Settings → Basic → Date and time ;

3 . Toggle the " Automatically» to the active position (if set by default, turn it off and on);

4 . Restart your iPhone.

No network, search or what to do when the iPhone does not see the operator’s SIM card while roaming abroad

If you've ever traveled abroad with your iPhone, you might have encountered this problem. You turned off your smartphone during the flight, and when you turned it on, your device does not connect to the cellular network, but displays the message “No network.” What to do?

On the forum technical support Apple has a corresponding discussion thread with a million pages to read. But even if you honestly start reading everything to figure it out, you won’t get an answer to your question even after several hours of careful reading.

System message “No network” (Search for network) appears when your iPhone or iPad (yes, the problem is also relevant for Apple tablets) cannot connect to it, or connects to an operator, but cannot establish a connection to either the Internet or the cellular network. You may even see the name of the operator who serves you - but then it will disappear anyway.

This error can have several reasons. But first you should exclude the most common and simplest of them. And anyone can do this.

Switch from LTE (4G) to 3G

1 . Open Settings your iPhone or iPad.
2 . Select Cellular connection → Voice and data.

3 . Click on the inscription Voice and data and change LTE to 3G or 2G.

Why do you need to do this? Experience shows that not all mobile operators abroad provide roaming in networks fourth generation(4G/LTE). As a result, and logically, your iPhone or iPad does not connect to networks - simply because there is nothing there for “foreigners”. AND the simplest way to solve this problem - look for networks of the previous, third generation (3G), because it is difficult to imagine a more or less developed country where they do not exist.

Let us repeat - this situation has nothing to do with the 4G coverage of foreign operators. They can provide fourth generation networks to local subscribers, but not to visitors.

Try it - it really helps :).

Didn't help?

Well, let's look at the options for solving the problem from among those that Apple offers us.

1. Turn off and on your iPhone (iPad)

2. Update your carrier settings

To do this:

— Connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi or a cellular operator.
— Select Settings → Basic → About this device. If your operator has prepared a settings update, you will be prompted to update to them.

3. Take out the SIM card and insert it back

4. Reset network settings

Settings → Basic → Reset → Reset network settings. Do not forget that this operation resets passwords for Wi-Fi networks, cellular network settings and preset VPN/APN settings.

5. Update iOS on iPhone and iPad to the latest version

6. Contact your mobile operator for help

Check with him whether the account is active or not technical problems with connections in your region.

7. Reset your iPhone or iPad to factory settings

What to do if the Internet does not work on iPhone while roaming

1. Go to Settings → Cellular connection and see if the slider next to the inscription is enabled Cellular data.
2 . If you are abroad, check that your data roaming settings are active ( Settings → Cellular connection → Data Options → data roaming).

Please note that the cost mobile traffic in roaming is much higher.

Here they are simple methods in some cases, they will help you avoid a trip to the service center and save a decent amount, which could have been billed by unscrupulous specialists.
