Hi, we arrived in Boston last night, I cannot get access to any cell service, not at the airport and not in the city.

 

I had no issues in Toronto a couple of months ago, and in running a 4g phone.

 

Any thoughts?

Hi @Lemmeatem 

  1. Manually search for another network
  2. Reboot the phone
  3. Try toggling Airplane mode on/off (it often helps kickstart things)
  4. Drop down to 3G in Network settings and see if that helps
  5. Check your SIM is fully inserted

@Lemmeatem O2 throttle their data speeds in the US to 500kbps, so if you're spending any length of time there you might want to consider getting a Pay & Go sim from AT&T or T-Mobile while you're there.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2
