  • The monthly megabytes of your plan are used up.
  • Your phone is already connected to a Wi-Fi network.

Tip: Observe the cellular indicator at the top of your mobile screen through the guide!

1. Activate the VOXI Device Mobile Data

Check the Firmware of the Device!

The mobile data feature might not be working properly if the mobile device is still functioning on an outdated firmware version. In turn, you need to verify that the latest firmware version is there.

  • To update an Android, go to Settings > “Firmware” > “Check for Updates”.
  • To update an iOS, simply go to Settings > “General” > “Software Update”.
Alert: The device must be connected to the internet in order to download a firmware update!

2. Simply, Deactivate the Wi-Fi!

One of the reasons why VOXI’s mobile data will not display “4G” or “5G” is that your device is currently connected to Wi-Fi.

All mobile devices are programmed to ignore the cellular mobile data connection if there’s already an established connection with a nearby Wi-Fi network.

How to Turn Off Wi-Fi On Android?

✅ Navigate to “Settings”, press on “WiFi” and tap the activation slider. Your mobile device will automatically unpair from the Wi-Fi network and start using cellular data.

How to Turn Off Wi-Fi On iOS?

✅ Drag downwards from the top of your iPhone/iPad’s display and tap the “WiFi” icon to unpair your device from Wi-Fi. To entirely deactivate the feature, go to Settings > “WiFi”.

When Does My Mobile Use Cellular Data?

Said simply, your device will always prefer WiFi over cellular when both are enabled.

In addition, know that your device will automatically drop the WiFi when it’s weak and use cellular instead.

Tip: Keep the WiFi on your VOXI SIM device disabled for now!

3. Power Cycle VOXI SIM Device!

By performing a power cycle on the mobile device, you’re addressing any temporal issues with the hardware or underlying software conflicts.

This type of reset will not erase any personal or settings information from the mobile device, but will refresh all operational and cellular services!

Here’s how to power reset your mobile device:

  1. Connect the VOXI device to a charger.
  2. Then, hold the device’s power button.
  3. On the power menu, choose “Shut Down”.
  4. Wait for 15 seconds until the unit turns off.
  5. Then, hold the power button for 5 seconds!
Tip: We recommend performing a “Shutdown” over a simple “Restart”.

4. Reinsert the VOXI SIM Card

Another useful tip to refresh the cellular connection of your VOXI-supported mobile device is to reinsert the SIM card chip.

The two services SIM card provides your device with our cellular calling and cellular data, so taking out the chip temporarily should refresh both services.

Follow these steps to reinsert the SIM card of your mobile device:

  1. First, locate the SIM tray on the left/right panel of the device.
  2. Insert a SIM ejector tool into the pinhole above the SIM tray.
  3. Push the SIM tray release button to pop out the SIM holder.
  4. Gently eject the SIM card and clean the SIM tray out of dust.
  5. Embed the SIM card into the tray and gently push it within.
  6. Wait until the VOXI device recognizes the SIM and connects.
Tip: To know whether your VOXI SIM has been recognized, wait for a PIN prompt to appear!

5. Review the Subscription Policies

It is possible that you may have exhausted all of the megabytes available for your VOXI mobile data subscription.

If you’ve chosen a subscription plan that does not contain unlimited access to mobile internet, you will be limited in how much cellular internet you’re allowed to use monthly.

How to Check Remaining VOXI Mobile Data (Browser)?

  1. Open a web browser on your device.
  2. Then, navigate to VOXI.co.uk/sign-in.
  3. Insert your client username/password.
  4. Then, press on the “Next” button below.
  5. Go to “Statistics” and review your plan.

How to Check Remaining VOXI Mobile Data (App)?

  1. Download the VOXI mobile app from the Google Play/App Store.
  2. Then, open the application on your device and tap on “Sign In”.
  3. Insert the required username and password in order to sign in.
  4. Press on “Sign-In” and follow the app’s activation instructions.
  5. Once you’ve connected the application, view the VOXI dashboard.
Tip: You can purchase additional megabytes of data through the VOXI app or online!

6. Correct VOXI Provider APN Settings

Since VOXI is a Vodafone brand, you must configure the APN settings of your device to match the ones powered by the Vodafone network.
