the PIN for your SIM card from your service provider.

Generally, SIM cards only allow a limited number of consecutive retries

if an incorrect PIN is entered. If this limit is exceeded, you must enter a

PIN unblocking key (PUK), which you can obtain from your service

provider. The number of consecutive attempts to enter the PUK

incorrectly is also limited. If this limit is exceeded, your SIM card will be

permanently disabled. For details about these limits, contact your service

provider.
