3. Perform a soft reset.

   A soft reset reconnects your ALCATEL ONETOUCH PIXI™ 7 to the Sprint network.

4. Temporary solution: Connect to a Wi-Fi network.

   You can connect to a Wi-Fi network as a temporary solution.

   Note: Most Wi-Fi networks have a range of less than 100 feet indoors and up to 300 feet outdoors. Objects between the router and your ALCATEL ONETOUCH PIXI 7 may decrease the signal strength.

   Connecting to a Wi-Fi network may also improve battery life.
