The main reason why this problem occurs are the following:

a. There is no sim card inside your pocket wifi or Globe Tattoo.

b. IF you are using a Globe Tattoo stick, it's USB port is a kind of damage already.

c. IF you are using a Globe Tattoo stick, your computer's USB port is a little dirty or rusty.

d. Your SIM card is already damaged or broken.

e. Your SIM card is dirty.

f. Your SIM card is already expired.

g. You inserted the SIM card incorrectly inside the slot.

h. You did not insert the SIM card all the way through the slot.

i. Or maybe your Globe Tattoo or pocket wifi is already done.

So, what do you need to do? Simple. You just need to know which of the listed problems above is the cause of it.

STEPS:

1. For letter a, if you removed the sim card inside your device, then expect it to malfunction. Try inserting the sim card first before panicking.

2. For letter b, try cleaning your device's USB port. If it's broken, then you need to buy a new one.

3. For letter c, try cleaning your computer's USB port. If it's also broken, try the other ports.

4. For letter d, if your sim card is already dead, then try buying a new one.

5. For letter e, if your sim card is just dirty, then just clean it first.

6. For letter f, if your sim card expired already, then it is also unusable, try buying a new one.

7. For letter g, try to fit the sim card in the correct way inside the slot.

8. For letter h, try to push through the sim card in the slot. You need to exactly fit it inside the slot.

9. For letter i, check whether if your device is still working by using another computer. If the same problem exists then buy a new one.

10. If none of the 9 steps above works, try restarting your Globe Tattoo or pocket wifi. And lastly, try restarting your computer also.
