Solved: I cannot access Internet using Reliance Jio 4G SIM card

As we said before, sometimes users run out of an active plan. In that case, users need to check if they have a working plan with validity and balance. To check if you have an active plan on your Jio number, go to MyJio app > open My jio to manage your Jio account > sign in using OTP or Jio ID. The dashboard will let you know your balance and validity details. In case your plan is expired, you can renew from there.

2) Check if your mobile phone supports Jio 4G
Sometimes users insert their Jio SIM card into the device that isn’t compatible with any 4G network. In that case, users need to ensure their device supports 4G SIM. Most of the new phones that are launching these days at least support 4G network. If you’re buying a new device, check all its specifications carefully before making the final purchase.

3) Check the data settings on your phone

Most of the times, people use two SIM cards in a phone. That’s when data settings kick in. For example, in our case, we are using two SIM cards on our Xiaomi Mi 5S smartphone. In that case, all we have to do is go to phone’s Settings > SIM cards & mobile networks > Default settings. Here we can configure what SIM card we have to use for both Dial and the Internet. Needless to say, steps involved to configure data settings on your phone may vary.

4) Keep an eye on the status of network indicator
If you go out of a Jio 4G coverage area, chances are that your internet connectivity wouldn’t perform up to the mark. In that case, it’s mandatory to keep an eye on our phone’s signal reception strength and the status of network indicted, which sits at the top of your phone’s display.

5) Opt for ‘Service Request.’

If you have performed all the above steps and still you’re unable to access your mobile, you can raise a request to Reliance Jio for service. Go to MyJio app > open My jio to manage your Jio account > sign in using OTP or Jio ID > tap the hamburger menu > Jio care. You can select what you need help with and submit a request. Additionally, you can live chat with customer care or dial 1800 889 9999.
