United States-specific troubleshooting
Things that can go wrong in United States.
- T-Mobile has weaker rural coverage than AT&T. For road trips through Utah, Arizona, or Montana, buy an AT&T-preferred plan.
- US carriers don't use APN settings — if you're prompted, leave blank.
- NYC and SF subway systems have cellular coverage in most stations; tunnels between stations are offline.
