Loosing connection with Ipad here at home.

Hello everyone. I presently own two iphones XR's and an Ipad as well. Just received a New Modem from my provider, and we also changed channels on the modem as well, choosing 5G for both iphones and the ipad, while changing all of my TV's over to 4.2G. No problem joining my Home's WiFi, with both phones, but quite often i loose connection with my ipad.

iPad Air 2, iOS 13

Connecting to Hue Bridge for Homekit This problem is a cross-platform issue, I've found that the guru's on here tend to provide the best support. I'm trying to connect a Philips Hue bridge to my Homekit. Every time I type in the code on the back of the device, it errors and says, "unable to add accessory, the setup code is incorrect.". It doesn't matter if its on my iPad Air II or iPhone 12 Pro Max. I am totally up-to-date on iOS software. I have an Orbi network and have factory reset it as new. Now, it seems that the problem is that my iPhone and iPad are connecting to the network as a 5ghz devices. But the Bridge is on the 2.4ghz and so they aren't communicating. However, I can't turn off the 5ghz network in the network settings on the Orbi web portal for the router. Is there a work around for this? I'm not 100% sure this is my problem. Maybe something else is going on? This is the first time I've set up a Philips product and my first foray into a smart home. I thought by going the Homekit route it would be easiest since I'm already in the Apple ecosystem, but this has proven to be very frustrating. Any help would be appreciated!

iPhone won't automatically connect to car Wi-Fi My iphone used to be able to Auto-Join my car Wifi with SW ver 15, but when i upgraded to SW ver 16, my phone stopped Auto-Join Car Wifi and now I have to connect manually. I do not have any issues auto-joining Home network or any other Auto-Join networks. This seems to only impact my Car Wifi. I have also turned "Private Wi-Fi Address" On and Off and that did not work. Is anyone else seeing this issue with the latest Software release? Thanks! [Re-Titled by Moderator]

No SYNC across devices when using iphone as HOTSPOT My ipad and MBA refuse to cloud sync when the iphone is used as the mobile cellular data hotspot. Only on wifi, it says. Well, that IS my wifi a lot of the time, so how can I fix this? All devices (ipad 10th 16.2, iphone SE 3rd 16.2, MBA M1 Ven 13.0.1) connect to the hotspot and use the data just fine.

I need some help with my ipad, maybe something in the settings, as both my XR iphones work well under my new 5G Connection. Can anyone help please?
