Signal & Cellular Data

In this article, you will learn how to:

• Check network connection strength
• Access cellular data
• Turn mobile data on or off
• Turn international data on or off

Check network connection strength

• CONNECTION TYPE: When connected to 4G LTE, the LTE icon will be displayed in the Notification bar.
• CONNECTION STRENGTH: The Signal Bars display the connection strength. The more bars that are displayed, the better the connection.

Access cellular data

1. Press the Center Dynamic key to access the Menu. Press the navigation keys to highlight the Settings app, then press the Select button to select. 



2. Press the navigation keys to navigate to Network & internet, then press the Select button to select Network & internet > Mobile network.

Turn mobile data on or off

From the Mobile network screen, press the navigation keys to highlight the Mobile Data switch, then press the Select button to enable or disable. When you disable mobile data, you will be prompted to press the Right Dynamic key to confirm.

Note: Alternately, you can turn cellular data on and off from the Quick Settings menu. Mobile data is on by default. Turning off mobile data will not allow any data to be transferred over the wireless network. Wi-Fi access, voice function, and standard text messaging are still allowed. You can also turn data on or off by device using your own myAT&T account.


 

Turn international data on or off

From the Mobile network screen, press the navigation keys to highlight the International Data Roaming switch, then press the Select button to enable or disable.

Note: Data roaming is off by default. Enabling Data roaming will allow the device to attach to foreign wireless network signals when available. International roaming charges will apply. This setting does not apply to voice access, which requires additional provisioning for usage on international networks. To learn more, visit the AT&T International website.
