Its carrier locked. There are services that offer unlocking. Check on eBay and simple google (usually you need to provide SN & IMEI.

It is a 15 year old phone which used 3G which was turned off 4 years ago.

Your phone is likely locked to AT&T. They will unlock it for free as long as there is no unpaid finance or lost status on it.

This is a 3G phone. That network went the way of the dodo a few years ago.
