I have SafeLink which is Besides Tracfone and the C/S Reps have said Nothing well-nigh Data Cards...! As for My Internet Company They told Me to Hold the Rest Button for 25 seconds, give the Modem another up to 6 minutes before trying to Connect Again...! The Modem won't permit Me to connect to information technology using the Password that is on the Label...! I allow Them know this over an Hr ago and am nonetheless waiting for Them to get dorsum to Me...! At one Shop I Shop at there is a Woman sitting outside with Free Phone Service with another company(Alliance, I Think)...! I am Seriously Tempted to talk with Her and let SafeLink/TracFone Hit the Curb...! This is getting ridiculous as it has been going on since last calendar week with Goose egg Definite beingness done except by Me...! The Phones the Lady has are HTC...! They look similar the Galaxy Amp 2 just a Tad Smaller... but They will connect to the Internet where Mine Won't...!
- Connectedness to Wifi doesn't need prison cell service, then Tracfone/Safelink is not a factor in your problem. Yous mentioned DSL and modem, how is your computer continued to the modem? via a blue (ethernet) cable or via Wifi? Is there a router connected to your modem? Practice y'all have any other devices (figurer, tablet, jail cell phone) that can successfully connect to your WiFi?

If there'southward a Walmart shop virtually yous, become at that place and try to connect to their Wifi (which does not crave a password). If your phone cannot connect to information technology, at that place'south a problem with your phone, and it's not due to Tracfone/Safelink service.
- The OP is having trouble connecting to WiFi. An Android phone doesn't need an APN set upward to access WiFi. Originally Posted by october262

OP needs to exist clearer. No Data through jail cell service or no Data through internet service provider, which is it?
I will be Judged on how I helped the poor, sick & others in demand; strangers & loved ones alike.

Visible (Verizon) UTT & Unlimited Information $25/mo
Liberty Wireless (T-Mobile) UTT 09.06.22
T-Mobile Gilded Rewards $10yr exp 01.03.23

I got information technology at present. Sounds like information technology'south just a Prisoner of war trouble. Can't AT&T just reset the PW?
- A valid question. The OP seems to have given up on jail cell service Internet, and went to the alternating of using WiFi through their ISP. SafeLink does provide data, and then that should piece of work. And then there are two questions here: 1) Why does Cell network Internet non piece of work? 2) What is the problem with using their ISP (AT&T?) for Internet? Originally Posted by zapjb

Now there'south costless data too? Wow.

- 1) Where in this thread that the OP ever mentioned trying to access the Cyberspace throught cell service? Originally Posted past loboheeler

2) The OP said the Wifi would not accept the password.
- 1. A curious omission is the OP did not mention cell Net service. They did mention a concern with data utilize, which would only be a factor with the prison cell network. Originally Posted by hpham

2) The OP said the Wifi would non accept the password.
2. The OP's problems with their WiFi and ISP are local to that use. We tin can't know the details of that here without further information. It was asked if anything else worked on the WiFi network.

Wow, Seems I Peaked Some Interest...! THANKS..!
I take a Samsung Galaxy Amp 2 and while I am going around on My Errands the screen shows bachelor Networks to Connect to but I can't connect because I Know Not what their Passwords are... I know SafeLink/TracFone Phones are getting Internet Service because I come across them in Activity while Shopping...! I can't seem to make Condom/Trac Understand that I want to use the Telephone to connect to the Cyberspace so I tin d/l and utilize the Coupon Apps, most all of the Customer Service Reps are speaking with a Indian(Republic of india) Accent. I got thru to one a couple of weeks ago and She bodacious Me that All was OK with My Account... All the same LMAO at that because two days agone I was given a New Enrollment Number for My SafeLink Account...!
I finally got connected to the Wifi with My ATT Modem, seems at the very end of the Password at that place is a (=) sign which I was not using because it was hidden on another screen on My Phone, I noticed a (ane/2) showing and said "what the Heck" and tapped information technology and Viola another prepare of Symbols Popped Up and in that location was the (=) symbol...! This is non actually a Solution to My Situation equally the Wifi Sig from My Modem is only skilful for a few feet, if I go outside and check the Wifi Access My Modem doesn't even evidence up so in essence I nonetheless won't be able to utilise the Coupon Apps for Shopping unless Dollar General, Family Dollar and Winn Dixie have Open Hot Spots...!
I take another Choice beside the Lady with the Other Service, I used to have an Account with Liberty Pop and They have Very Reasonable Rates and so I may just bank check with Them and meet if They will Allow Me to Use My Galaxy Amp 2 with Their Service...! I will cheque with Them later today as I have to be going to different places today to stock up on My and Kitty's Nutrient...!
A BIG THANKS to All for the Replies... Hope what I just posted sheds some-more light on My State of affairs...! Thanks Again, Have A Great Day and May GOD Bless Yous and Yours...gw..
- Next time yous demand to contact TF, use the CHAT function on their Spider web site. The Conversation reps are usually more competent, and you don't have to deal with their accent. Originally Posted by gw1110

Home Wifi point usually has a range of 30 to 50 ft. When you go to stores and places that don't take free-access Wifi, you can plow on Data on your telephone and utilize it to become on the Cyberspace. The posts in a higher place say Safelink customers at present get 1GB of Data per month (2GB in California). That should be enough for your usage. Try it a few times when y'all want to use your Coupon Apps, so get into Settings-->Information and see how much Data was used. If it'due south way below 1GB, no problems. If it's shut to 1GB, then either reduce your usage, or buy a Data card when your Information remainder is low.Wifi Sig from My Modem is but good for a few feet, if I get outside and check the Wifi Access My Modem doesn't even show upwards and so in essence I still won't be able to apply the Coupon Apps for Shopping unless Dollar General, Family Dollar and Winn Dixie have Open Hot Spots...!
