I bought my new Iphone 11 yesterday and on both wifi networks (at home and at work), the network will not stay connected. It will connect after I manually choose the wifi network but as soon as I lock the phone, it drops it again. ???
iPhone 11
I had the same issue and replaced my IPhone 11 3 times. Apple suggested many solutions to no avail. Lately, 10 days ago, I discovered that it is not a phone issue but the wifi router issue. I have disabled the " Band Steering" so now it is only working on 2.4 GHz while before it was alternating between the 2.4 and the 5GHz and that caused the problem. I have had no issue at all since then.
So log in to your router's IP address from a device connected to your modem and go to Wifi settings, then go to 2.4 GHz band WiFi, remove tick next to band steering and save settings.
I open this will help all those who are facing this issue.
I own an iPhone X, iOS 13..4.1
Every now and then when I lock my phone and then go to unlock it, i see the wifi signal off and instead of this the phone is using data. Once i unlock it, it connects back to the wifi connection.
Resetting network settings didn't help.
Also when I join a conference call through Teams for example, or Webex or something with Voip every now and then the phone disconnects and reconnects immediately from wifi. this is so frustrating and i am sure that it has to do with iOS 13 that is crap.
I totally agree with you ! These phones are expensive and they should be working correctly . We shouldn’t have to be trying to find solutions to fix these issues with brand new phones.
Agreed. It cannot be a Router issue when multiple other devices are connected to the same wifi router and have no issues.
My iPhone 11 keeps dropping wifi and I can’t find out how to fix it. Why doesn’t Apple address this issue? Super frustrating
I tried this also, it did not help.
OMG!! The first helpful answer! Thank you so much! WTH Apple?
This helped! Thanks a ton. I thought I’d put it on auto-join but turns out I hadn’t. It’s still a bug in UX which apple should fix. Didn’t face this issue on my iPhone 7 before.
