How to fix Salt not working
Salt is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach salt.ch over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Toggle airplane mode
Turn airplane mode on, wait ten seconds, then turn it off. This forces the phone to re-register on Salt's network. Wait one minute before testing calls or mobile data.
Restart your phone
Power the device off fully and turn it back on. A clean boot clears stuck radio and app states. Test again once the home screen loads.
Check mobile data and APN
Open Settings, then Mobile Data, and confirm mobile data is enabled. If data still fails, open the access point name list and make sure an APN entry exists for Salt; create one if it is missing. Save changes and retry.
Reset network settings
On iPhone, go to Settings, General, Transfer or Reset iPhone, Reset, Reset Network Settings. On Android, open Settings, System, Reset options, Reset Wi-Fi, mobile and Bluetooth. This removes saved Wi-Fi passwords, so reconnect to networks afterward.
While Salt is down: what to use instead
- WhatsApp or Signal over Wi-Fi If your phone shows no signal but you are on home or office Wi-Fi, you can still call and message people through these apps because they don't need the mobile network.
- Official interruption page Check it to see if the operator has listed a known fault in your area.
- Help centre on the website When the My Salt app won't load or log you in, the support pages open in any browser and cover most account and SIM questions.
- A phone on Swisscom or Sunrise Borrow one from a friend for urgent calls.
Fix Salt on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone
Salt on Windows
- Fix
- Restart your Salt Fiber Box router and verify your network connection settings. If the connection still fails, flush your DNS cache or temporarily disable any active VPNs.

Salt on iPhone and iPad
- Fix
- Toggle Airplane mode or reset your network settings to refresh your connection to the Salt cellular network. If using home internet, restart your Salt Fiber modem and reconnect your iPhone or iPad to the Wi-Fi.

Problems at the same time as Salt
Since 5 October, 17 of Salt's 20 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 Salt goes down
Salt is a Swiss telecom operator offering mobile, landline, TV and internet plans, and it runs its own mobile network across Switzerland. Households and small businesses rely on it for calls, texts and home broadband, so an outage can cut off phone service, streaming and anything else that needs a connection.
When the mobile network has problems, calls may drop mid-conversation or fail to connect at all, and texts can sit unsent. Mobile data often goes first, so apps stall on loading screens and web pages time out while the phone still shows full signal bars. Home internet customers see the router light go red or landline calls fail to dial out, and Salt TV streams can freeze or refuse to start. Salt outages are frequently regional, so one town can lose service while the rest of the country works fine, and partial failures that hit only voice or only data are common.

How we track Salt
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Salt, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Salt, 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. This is separate from Salt's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
