What shall I fill in the table, if it’s not working on another sim!! I’ve been using the same simcard and usually it works , what happened now?? I even tried with a different airtel SIM card and it was working but not with the one I have
So, internet isn’t active or you don’t have data on your SIM. As it’s been working for other sim, it should have worked for yours one too.
