How to fix 2degrees not working
When 2degrees itself is having trouble, these steps won't bring it back, but they will rule out anything on your side:
Your browser tries to reach 2degreesmobile.co.nz over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Toggle airplane mode for 2degrees
Turn airplane mode on for 10 seconds, then off, and watch the signal bars; this makes the phone re-register on the 2degrees network and clears a stuck data session. If bars stay empty, move on.
Check mobile data and 2degrees APN
On iPhone go to Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Network; on Android open Settings > Network & internet > Mobile network > Access Point Names. Set APN to 2degrees. A blank or wrong APN blocks data while calls still connect, so save the change and test a web page.
Restart the phone on 2degrees
Power the phone off completely, wait 30 seconds, and turn it back on; a full restart clears a modem fault that an airplane toggle can miss. Test a call and a web page before you change more settings.
Reset network settings for 2degrees
On iPhone go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings; this wipes saved Wi-Fi passwords and Bluetooth pairings but can fix a corrupted carrier profile. On Android open Settings > System > Reset options and choose Reset Wi-Fi, mobile & Bluetooth; Samsung puts the same reset under Settings > General management > Reset > Reset network settings. Do this last.
While 2degrees is down: what to use instead
- Wi-Fi A home, work or public Wi-Fi connection lets you keep using messaging apps and web pages when mobile data drops.
- Spark A Spark SIM or eSIM in a spare phone gives you another network for calls, texts and data if the mobile signal fails.
- One NZ Use a One NZ SIM or eSIM in a spare handset to make calls and use data while your usual network is out.
- Skinny A Skinny SIM in a spare phone gives you calls, texts and data on a different network while the outage lasts.
Problems at the same time as 2degrees
Since 28 October, all 2 of 2degrees's spikes in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.
When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

What happens when 2degrees goes down
2degrees is a New Zealand mobile and broadband provider, and people rely on it for calls, texts, mobile data and home internet. An outage cuts off calls and home internet.
On a mobile outage, your phone may show No service or Emergency calls only, calls fail before they connect, texts sit unsent, and mobile data stalls or drops to nothing. Data often goes first. The handset can keep a signal bar while the data session dies, and a full site outage then takes calls with it. Broadband trouble shows up as a router light turning red or amber and pages timing out; video calls freeze mid-sentence, and problems can stay local to a cell site or suburb or hit the account app across the country, so a working phone in another town does not prove the service is fine.

How we track 2degrees
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for 2degrees, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for 2degrees, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. 2degrees doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
