Hi Kim,
Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern.
To unlock your device using Mobilation website, your device must be connected with active device data or Wi-Fi connection.
In case you have disabled Wi-Fi or data connection on your phone. You can enable them by changing the SIM card again and swiping down from the top of the screen immediately after the device starts, but before the lock screen is shown. This will open the quick access menu on your phone where you can enable your connections.
