I switched to Straight Talk from Verizon and it's been great, but does anyone know the settings I need to use to be able to connect to towers when there isn't wi-fi around? I messed up my settings and have no clue how to make it right. I've tried for days, but I give up! Every time I'm out and go to post something, I can't connect, but my son's S5 that is also on StraightTalk connects beautifully. So, I know I screwed it up.

Thank you! I asked on FB, but didn't get help and couldn't access this page until now. (laptop issue -- storm here)

Ok are you havinga wifi issue or a mobile internet issue because a wifi tower... I am guessing you mean a wifi router connected to you home internet. Or are you having a data connection issue.. as in connecting to Straight Talk internet service?

Taking a gues you mean straight talk mobile internet and not wifi then you probably just have to adjust some settings is all

I talked to her on Facebook Messenger. Her problem is resolved. she did not have the right band setting. She put CDMA.
