3. Check mobile data and airplane mode settings
4. Monitor your data usage
5. Consider SIM card issues
6. Visit a BIC SIM Counter (if needed)

1. Check if the SIM card is recognized by your device:

• On iPhone, check the antenna icon in the upper left corner of the screen. If it says “SIM not installed,” your device may not recognize the SIM card.
•  On Android, look for the antenna icon in the upper right corner of the screen. If it’s grayed out, your device may not recognize the SIM card.

2. Clean the SIM card:

Dust or dirt may sometimes prevent the SIM card from working correctly. Carefully remove the SIM card, wipe it gently with a soft cloth or cleaning cloth, and reinsert it.

3. Verify APN settings:

• Incorrect APN (Access Point Name) settings can cause connection issues.
• Ensure that the correct APN settings for IIJmio are selected on your device.
• On iPhone, check if the “Configuration Profile” is correctly installed.
• On Android, make sure the APN is set to IIJmio.

4. Check mobile data and airplane mode settings:

•  Make sure that mobile data is turned on. Disabling mobile data will prevent internet access.
•  Ensure that airplane mode is turned off, as it disables all communications functions.

5. Monitor your data usage:

IIJmio offers different data plans, and if you exceed your data limit or use up your high-speed data coupon, your connection speed may be restricted.
Use the “miopon” app or IIJmio’s website to check your data usage and coupon status.

6. Consider SIM card issues:

• If none of the above solutions work, it’s possible that your SIM card may have a physical issue or is defective. Try inserting a different SIM card (if available) to see if it’s recognized by your device.
• If your SIM card seems to be the problem, contact IIJmio’s support center for assistance. They provide phone support and have an online inquiry form for assistance.

7. Visit a BIC SIM Counter (if needed):

If you prefer in-person assistance, you can visit a BIC SIM Counter for support or even get a replacement SIM card if necessary.

In Summary

When you face  connectivity issues with IIJmio, it’s essential to check the SIM card recognition, clean the SIM card, verify APN settings, review data and airplane mode settings, monitor data usage, and consider potential SIM card issues. If the problem persists, don’t hesitate to reach out to IIJmio’s support for assistance.
