    • Check Airplane mode. If toggle is currently turned on, tap on it to switch it off. If not, tap the toggle to turn it on.
    • While the Airplane mode is enabled, perform a soft reset on your device.
    • Wait for your phone to go back online after the reset then access Settings > Airplane mode. Tap the switch to disable the feature.
  • If your mobile data is enabled already, go to Settings > General > Reset and Select “Reset Network Settings”.  (For a detailed guide on how to Reset your Network Settings click here).

    • The iPhone will display the Apple logo and restart. Once the device is back on, test your internet connection by opening a safari page.

  • If issue persists, check if your iPhone 6 is running on an updated software version. Go to Settings > General > Software Update. If there is an available update, install it and check if it fixes the issue.
