 Note

Please note that the SIM card used for Internet connection via P-SIM cannot have the same telephone number as the SIM card used in the cellular phone. If the same card is used for both, phone calls will not be connected properly to the cellular phone. Use a SIM card with a separate phone number for the Internet connection or a data card that does not handle phone calls and can therefore not interfere with phone function.
