Troubleshooting
Connectivity Issues:
If you have Insty.Online and do not have a connection to the internet, please check your signal in the dashboard to make sure you are registered on a tower.
If you are registered on a tower, send in a message to support to have us verify your service is active and online.
If you are using a "bring your own sim" and have no internet, check your SIM card settings to make sure the correct provider and/or APN is being used.
If you are registered on the tower and have no internet, you will need to reach out to your provider to confirm your service is active and online.
