Troubleshooting Your Cricket Wireless Connection
When your connection is acting up, here are the steps you can take to troubleshoot:

- Test Your Services: Make a call, send a text, and send an email to confirm if those services are operational.
- Payment Status: Confirm you’ve paid for your current monthly plan cycle. If payment is due, you may experience interruptions.
- Wi-Fi vs Data: Temporarily disable Wi-Fi and use mobile data. Some Wi-Fi networks may restrict certain usages.
