Thanks Nicholerj. This was very helpful.
Question marked as
Any WiFi router that has MAC filter enabled may not accept the “Private” MAC address feature of the new feature added in iOS 14.0.1 to each WiFi profile saved. Turning off the private Mac Address on the specific WiFi profile may allow your device to connect.
Another issue is it connects fine but moments later it prompts for password on a saved profile. Turning off “wifi assist” in Cellular settings (absolute bottom of the list) will allow the device to remain connected on weaker range areas of this wifi profile.
I suspect the failing over to WiFi profile flip flopping is triggering a false positive on the algorithm that the wifi profile saved is incorrect and thus asks for a re-authentication.

Perhaps this worked for some, but i want to reiterate ewe did that in presence of Apple support and that has been a waste of time. We’re taking the phone by appointment to Apple Store on Saturday.
It was the solution that worked for my issue. I hope this can work for someone else.
Of course yes. There are some "sector" solutions that work for some people but it is certain that the problem, whatever it is, is reimported together with the backup.

It would be interesting to find out if Apple, with iOS 14.1, has by chance solved the problem. But you're right! I don't want to be a hero...
New updates with iOS is like a new car for which you would need to repaint and repair all the roads to make it work....
Means Bitdefender has been faster than others to update :)
Apple is very aware of the Wi-Fi problem. Hopefully by time they get to 16.0 they’ll have it figured out.
Face it, apples not concerned with the bugs, just selling more phones.
Interesting....
Yes me too! This is affecting my work as I use my phone regularly to look up medications etc...
PLEASE iPhone.... please fix this!!!
APPLE DOES NOT CARE!!!!!!!!
ITS JUST THAT SIMPLE!
At some point a few thousand people will go to Android. Maybe, just maybe Apple will listen
Even I have an issue connecting to 4g and there are some bugs while connecting another device with my personal hotspot on my iPhone after the iOS 14.1 update.
This is the least useful reply on this forum.
And if after 30 years you have not fixed your 3 lines C program ....
