Learn why some devices don’t work on our network

Did you receive a message that your SIM card swap didn’t work or that your device won’t work on AT&T’s network? Find out why.

DETAILED INFO

You received this message because you tried to use a device that isn’t supported on our network. The most common reasons a device won’t work are:

  • Some use cellular technology that is not compatible with our network.
  • Some don’t support our network’s frequency bands.

Devices that don’t use the same cellular technology and frequency bands as AT&T aren’t able to use our network services.
