Re: No Data Connection.

Thanks for that Mark - glad they don't make it too easy for us!  What a boring life it would be, eh?

Re: No Data Connection.

Hi, I'm having the same problem after porting my number, no data with the PDP authentication error after having done all of the troubleshooting steps with the SIM card, changing network, clearing settings, soft reset and and power off restart.

 

Posting so that I can PM

Re: No Data Connection.

Hi all, 

 

I understand you may have already tried this, but can please give the handset another re-boot. It's important that when doing so, the SIM has been removed from the handset entirely.

  • Turn the handset off
  • Remove the SIM card
  • Leave it for a couple of minutes
  • Replace the SIM card
  • Turn the handset back on again

thanks, 

- Rebeka

Hi Rebeka,

 

Yes I had tried that before, but have just repeated it and still no data connection.

 

Thanks,

 

Steve

Re: No Data Connection.

Hi

 

I have the same problem.

 

Ported from another provider, phone and text works, but attempts to use data return PDP authentication error.

 

I have soft reset, reset network settings, removed sim, changed network selection manually.

 

I would really appreciate some help.

Thanks.

Re: No Data Connection.

Removing the sim and rebooting again fixed for me after 2 days of no connection, worth persevering with it

Re: No Data Connection.

It seems it's not just porting numbers - my mums brand new number with PN is not getting data either even though she has 4gb

Re: No Data Connection.

Same problems as everyone else, number ported over fine on Friday, tried all the resets and fixes but no joy , will have to look elsewhere if it does not get fixed soon

Don’t want to have to try all the same steps over and over , just fix it from your end please ..... using a iPhone 6s and ported number from an EE sim ....

Re: No Data Connection.

It'll come as no surprise to learn that my replacement SIM arrived this morning and was activated very quickly by the helpdesk people, but exactly the same as everyone else it seems - still no data connection.

 

And now it appears that Rebecca, who was trying to sort this out via direct messaging with me, isn't around today.

 

I wonder how long this is going to drag on for?!!!

Re: No Data Connection.

Spoke again with Plusnet on Sunday evening, the young man was very inexperienced and was of no help.

Requested my PAC code and ordered a SIM from EE, they have a great deal on at the moment.

Very painful and disappointing experience with Plusnet.
