Wifi works, network unavailable
My 6 plus works fine on wifi. When I install my sim, it realizes that it is an ATT sim, but the network status in the settings reads "Not Available".
I have done all suggested troubleshooting techniques I could find online including resetting network setting, restoring phone, and checking carrier settings.
I even took the phone apart to check for broken antennas, but everything looks fine.
I am now considering replacing the logic board with hope that it will fix the issue.
Does anyone have any other suggestions or have had this issue?
Es esta una buena pregunta?

Have you tried someone else's working SIM?

Have you tried using that AT&T sim card on another phone to see if that works?
Has the phone worked before with sim card?
Is this a phone recently bought from someone?
If you buy logic board replacements from eBay / Alibaba it's a bad idea because you never know whether something is wrong with it or not (most of the time if there is something wrong it's usually not repairable unless you do micro-soldering most of the time).

Is it locked? Normally a cellphone unless bought outright at say an Apple store will be locked by a service provider, if at any point you switch providers the phone will not work until you contact, your old SP. There is a fee involved.

Go to Settings>General>About. Scroll down until you reach "Serial Number." Somewhat below it, you should see the IMEI number. Can you confirm that it is present?

Thanks for the suggestions.
I have tried several sims from straight talk, boost mobile and att. I know all the sims work in other phones.
I bought this phone for $50 knowing it had this issue, and figured it was repairable.
The phone is unlocked for any network. This was confirmed by install of a sim, the "Chose carrier" setting option pops up before being auto chosen (correctly).
The phone isn't iCloud locked, I made sure of that before purchasing.
The imei is there
Everything looks and acts normal other than "Not Available" network in the about settings page.
Are there any other trouble shooting options available? Or should I bite the bullet and attempt a logic board replacement.
Thanks very much for the suggestions again.
