During this time the internet connection may drop briefly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Check that <strong>data roaming is switched on<\/strong> and that network selection is normally set to <strong>Auto<\/strong>. If the connection does not come back, restart the router or choose another operator manually.<\/p>\n<p>Also remember that the country you are entering must be included in the data plan you chose.
