My devices drop WiFi and when I try to reconnect it says password wrong. When I try to re enter it says it’s wrong even though I entered correctly. Happens 1 or 2 times a day. I restart, and if 1 device tries to share password it shows the PW is wrong. I’m considering reset network settings but haven’t yet. What’s best?

Here are some troubleshooting steps for wi-fi networks, If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t connect to a Wi-Fi network - Apple Support
Resetting Network Settings is one step, as well as power cycling your router, but try the support document and see if that helps.

I fail to mention all my other devices such as smart appliance, TV’S, and laptop, all were still connected. Only my IOS devices drop connection so it isn’t the modem or router. The internet was fine. I did try the suggestion for exactly this problem such as “forget network” and try re-enter PW. It didn’t work but after 15 or 20 minutes the devices do connect on their own. Thank you for replying I will go back to the support document.
You're welcome. However, just because other devices are connecting correctly does not mean there is not a problem with your network, or that the modem/router do not need to be restarted. Each device connection is unique. The support document should provide you with the troubleshooting you need. If that does not work, you can create a current backup of the device and restore to that backup, and if necessary, test by restoring to factory and see if that changes. If you continue to have an issue when restoring to factory and setting up as new, you may need to have the device examined by Apple.
