Question

Will the internet icon appear on the iPhone 5 screen once the network is configured?
Answer

Yes, once the network is correctly configured and a data connection is active, an internet icon (such as 3G, 4G, LTE, or the Wi-Fi symbol) will appear in the status bar at the top of your iPhone 5 screen.

To ensure the icon appears and your internet is working, follow these steps to reset or manually configure your settings:

Go to Settings > Mobile Data.

Select Mobile Data Options and then Mobile Data Network.

Scroll to the bottom and select Reset Settings, then confirm by tapping Reset.

If the icon still does not appear, ensure that Mobile Data is toggled ON in the Mobile Data menu.

Turn off Wi-Fi temporarily to verify that the cellular data icon (LTE/4G/3G) appears in the status bar.

If you are setting it up manually, you must enter the specific APN details provided by your mobile carrier in the Mobile Data Network section.
