Have you tried to manually select a network? If not try to select each available network at least 4 times until your phone registers on one. The reason for your phone not registering may be, that Telna like most operators, use roaming steering to force your handset onto that network on which they have the cheapest wholesale costs. In order to prevent your phone registering on another roaming partner's network they may refuse the first three requests for permission sent to their HLR as it is assumed that the first three attempts are part of your handsets automatic network selection process and that your handset will move to another network after three failures to register. However if their preferred roaming partner's network is unavailable at your location, steering may end in up your handset not registering at all.
Usually steering servers are configured to stop refusing permissions after the third denied request, thus you should try it four times manually to circumvent the steering mechanism.
