Not connecting to wifi

if I activate reset network settings on my iPhone 7, do I have to input all passwords again when I visit another wifi network other than my own?

iPhone 7, iOS 13

Yes, but NO other data is involved. See this paragraph:

Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, and VPN and APN settings that you've used before.

Comment: Not sure that keychain can save your wifi passwords. I use a simple method: before doing any reset/restore/update I create an encrypted backup of my device using iTunes on my computer, and then restore data from that backup.

Question: No idea about that, also because you didn't explain how that's happening. What happens when you try? only at home? with all wifi networks? did you get an error message?
