2 years agoHey D_sahan - Try using LTE. I understand you are paying for 5G, but it is a troubleshooting step to try to reduce as many variables as possible.
You could try swapping your SIM to a new one as well

Here are a few steps to try and resolve this issue:
Network Settings Reset:
- Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will reset all network-related settings to their defaults but will not delete your data.
Check for Carrier Settings Update:
- Sometimes, a carrier settings update can fix connectivity issues. Go to Settings > General > About. If an update is available, you should see a prompt to update.
Software Update:
- Ensure your iPhone has the latest iOS update. Go to Settings > General > Software Update.
Disable Wi-Fi Assist:
- Sometimes, Wi-Fi Assist can cause issues. Go to Settings > Cellular and scroll to the bottom to disable Wi-Fi Assist.
Check App Permissions:
- Make sure WhatsApp and Messenger have the necessary permissions. Go to Settings > Privacy > Microphone and Camera to check that these apps have access.
Network Coverage:
- Ensure that there are no ongoing network issues in the Kamloops area. Sometimes, localized network issues can cause disruptions. telus.com/outages
5G vs. LTE:
- While it’s frustrating to be advised to switch to LTE, this can sometimes be a temporary workaround while the network issues are being addressed.

I have been using LTE for the last two weeks. But there is no improvement. I am really fed up with this. What else can we do? I took out my sim card today, cleaned it and inserted it again. But no progress.

I would visit a TELUS store near you and advise them of the problem to see if they can replace the SIM card for you
