*PIN Code: Your eSIM activation QR code includes a PIN code for unlocking the eSIM during setup. If you enter the PIN incorrectly three times and get locked out, use the PUK code to regain access.
**Network: Seeing different operators during activation (or while traveling) is normal as your eSIM connects to various networks. Simply continue following the prompts as usual to complete the setup.
