6. Check Cellular Settings for App Store

If you don’t set your App Store to use both Wi-Fi and Cellular Data, say, if you allow App Store to only use Wi-Fi network, when there is no Wi-Fi you won’t connect to App Store even if the Cellular or Mobile data is available. So it’s recommended to allow App Store use Wi-Fi and Mobile Data: Settings > Cellular/Mobile Data > App Using WLAN & Cellular Data > Check WLAN & Cellular Data.
