Operator "Megaphone" does not catch the network: possible causes and solutions to the problem

Mobile network in the life of modern man occupies an important place. It has become so necessary that sometimes I can not imagine the lack of possibility to phone with a close person, which simply frightens me. Everyone, even in a different city, can communicate with colleagues on work matters or call relatives. Due to cellular communication, during the day all tasks and problems are solved fairly quickly. However, there are situations when you can not make a call, and the message "No signal" appears on the screen.

What to do - does not catch the Megafon network? Why in the age of high technology can you face this kind of problem? Every mobile phone owner wants to know what causes the network to go missing, and how to avoid it?

No network

At present, the towers of the mobile operator Megafon are set practically throughout the territory of the Russian Federation and even beyond its borders. Extremely rare are those areas where there is no coverage completely.

If the phone does not catch the Megafon network, there may be several reasons for this. To say that there is no coverage in this place is possible only if all the people around you do not have a signal. Most often, this problem can be encountered outside the city. Sometimes on those sites that are located in the lowlands, there may also be no coverage of the network.

The "Megaphone" towers in urban conditions are built quite tightly, so with a signal, as a rule, problems do not arise. However, because of the large number of buildings, individual areas with little or no coverage can occur. Concrete partitions serve as a barrier to the propagation of radio waves. In this case, it's enough to move aside about 10 meters - and there will be no problems with communication.

There is a signal, but it's impossible to call

You are faced with such a problem when you do not catch the Megafon network. What to do in this situation? The reasons, like their decisions, can be several. For example, interruptions with cellular communication or problems with the mobile device. However, often users are faced with the fact that on the phone screen the signal level though small, but there is. But when you try to send a message or dial the subscriber's number, except for short beeps, nothing happens. In this case, you can try the following:

• Check the call forwarding service. If it is active, you must type the command ## 21 # and the call key.
• Communication problems can cause FDN mode. If it is enabled, there are restrictions on working with subscriber numbers. Available for calls will be only those that are listed in a special list on the SIM card.
• If you do not catch the Megafon network, or if the signal is very weak, you can try to restart the mobile device. In this case, it is desirable to remove the SIM card and reinstall it.
• The presence of a black list is displayed on making calls. Most often in this application, a lock is installed on some services. You can check the status and correct the settings in the settings.
• In mobile phones, the function of prohibiting incoming and outgoing calls is provided. It is impossible to dial the number - then you need to see its status.
• If the problem with the signal still remains, you should try to insert your SIM card into another device. If there is no signal on it, you will need to contact any Megafon mobile phone.

3G network. Why does not a SIM card "Megaphone" catch?

Currently, every mobile user knows that 3G is not only a reliable, but also a powerful Internet source. In the event that the network is unstable or completely disappears, it is necessary to carry out diagnostics.

• Most often, when denying access, the reason is a lack of funds on the account or the used traffic limit. To check the status, execute the following commands: * 558 # or * 105 #.
• If the SIM card "Megaphone" does not catch the 3G network while the owner is outside of its region, it is necessary to check the package settings - whether the 3G network is allowed in roaming.
• Apparatus equipped with two ports for sim cards, often have some technical limitations. For example, 3G or 4G support can only be implemented on one of the slots.
• And of course, you can test the device itself. To do this, it is recommended that you first switch to the 2G network and check if it is functioning. After that, activate the function only 3G. Often there are signal failures when the mixed mode is active.

Problems with 4G network

Not so long ago, users had the opportunity to connect to the networks of the fourth generation. This option is also implemented by the cellular operator "Megaphone".

Has ceased to catch a network phone, however earlier there were no problems? It is necessary to understand the reasons for such a failure. The matter is that 4G works stably now only in large cities. At the testing stage are the territory of the regional centers and the countryside, so in these places the signal can be either weak or completely absent.

Also, the reason that MegaFon does not catch the 4G network may be tariff package limitations. To do this, you need to contact the mobile phone and activate the service.

Another reason, if you can not connect to the 4G, there may be features of the technical equipment of the mobile phone. Not all devices support this technology.

Reason in the phone

Why does not it catch the Megafon network on the phone? This issue is very frustrating for mobile users. Unfortunately, not always there are problems in coverage if there is no signal. Any device is not insured against faults. And now multifunctional smartphones are packed with so many different technologies that it is simply impossible to prevent and ensure the reliability of the level of work with cellular networks.

So, if the subscriber noticed that the SIM card "Megaphone" does not catch the network on his phone, you can try to insert it into another device. If there are no problems with the signal, the reasons for the breakdown of the device may be several. Consider the main ones:

• The radio contact failed.
• The fault is in the transmitter power amplifier.
• Problems with the antenna.
• Software failure.
• The interior of the phone got wet.

Malfunction in the SIM card

No less common reason why "Megaphone" does not catch the network, may be a SIM card defect. Many users are often surprised when this happens. However, the card of the mobile operator is the same electronic device as the phone itself. Inside it there is a chip that can be damaged. In case of failures, the phone simply does not register on the network.

If this happened, then you should not be upset before the time. You can restore access to your number in any office of your mobile operator. It's enough just to order a duplicate of the SIM card. However, it must be remembered that this number should be designed specifically for you.

Sim card is locked

There are cases when the owner for a long time does not use the service of the mobile operator, and then discovers that "Megaphone" does not catch the network. This problem is quite natural. After a certain period, this number is blocked. Almost all operators provide services for one year, after which it is necessary to replenish the account in order to extend the term. If the SIM card is locked, it becomes inactive. Naturally, you will not be able to see the network and connect to it using it.

Conclusion

So, in this article, we figured out why Megafon does not catch the network. The most common reasons that can lead to such consequences:

• The failure of the phone itself.
• Problems with the SIM card.
• Lack of coverage in this or that area.

Also, if "Megaphone" does not catch the network in automatic mode, it is recommended to use manual search. Sometimes the problem is solved quite simply - rebooting the gadget.
