Do I need Wi-Fi to install the eSIM?

Do I need Wi-Fi to install the eSIM?

Installing an eSIM requires downloading the eSIM profile from the carrier to your device. This process needs a stable internet connection to ensure the download completes successfully and your eSIM is configured correctly.

  • Using a stable Wi-Fi connection is the most reliable way to install your eSIMNum profile.
  • Wi-Fi reduces the risk of installation errors caused by slow or unstable networks.
  • It’s especially recommended to install your eSIM at home or in a location with a strong and stable connection before you travel.

Mobile data can also work

  • If you do not have access to Wi-Fi, you can use a stable mobile data connection to install your eSIM.
  • Make sure your mobile data signal is strong and consistent to prevent incomplete installation or download errors.

Why a stable connection matters

  • The eSIM profile contains carrier information, authentication data, and network settings.
  • Any interruption during download or installation may result in:
    • Installation failure
    • QR code or activation code errors
    • Partial installation that prevents your eSIM from working

If you experience any issues during installation or activation, feel free to contact eSIMNum Support. We’re always here to assist.
