iOS 14.0.1 wifi issues

My husband and I have the same problem. I do not think it will be solved but "checking your wifi modem". Our wifi works perfectly on the Macs and on the TV. No interruptions or anything.

The problem is only in our iPhones.

Oh for me everything else than my wife’s iPhone works : she’s the only one who updated to 14.0.1 on this device. Her iPad, my iPhone, my son’s iPhone are still around 13.7 and will be kept this way until this is fixed.

Both Apple TVs, macs are also ok.

Don’t know why Apple always need to f... up things that require a change of the entire environment...

Yes! It works! But you don't have to import any BackUp. Everything has to be reset from scratch, as if the iPhone were new. Of course, the data in iCloud will be saved instead!

THAT SUCKS!!!

It reminds me of the time I had a Windows laptop..... Only solution for every problem with the operating system was to start from the scratch.

I really expected more from Apple .... This is pathetic....

After waiting AND hoping for an update that never came. RESET. .No backup restored. Worked for me..

Authenticators and lots of apps reinstalled. 6hours later and I am half way.

Had to call (Nice waiting tune) the ING creditcard company.,

They had to manually reset my account.

Dear Apple this BUG cost me a lot of time.

Not a happy Apple customer.

I must report that I've spent half an hour with Apple support (still 5 days to go on my one year's warranty), they had me reset the iPhone, and I'm stucked at same f.... point. No matter if I indeed shut that ''Private adress'' button or not.

Next step: Apple store, and they'll have to live with their own philosophy of repainting the entire streets and redoing the roads when a road map (iOS) is the problem : It's either they change the defective road map or replace the iPhone.

This is really becoming RIDICULOUS !

How many hours have you guys all wasted on this ? Probably more than the programming team who released that crappy update.

I had problems with 4g after updating to iOS 14.0.1. It was very sluggish n kept dropping. Wireless was ok. Say the mention of VPN it this post so I tried switching it off but it kept switching back on. I knew Norton security added this so I turned it off n now 4g working fine. Hope this helps .....

If you’re using a VPN app, make sure your subscription hasn’t lapsed. If it has, turn off the VPN from the app (not from Settings). Mine did and it caused my WiFi to stop working. It showed I was connected to WiFi but the WiFi symbol wasn’t there and it wasn’t connecting.

WiFi has been terrible after updating to 14.0.1. WiFi connects but after a few minutes you can’t get any websites and texts stop coming in. It’s not my router...everything else connects fine in my house. I have to disconnect from WiFi to be able to get out to the internet and then I also get a flood of texts. Please fix this!!!!

Riotten22 are you using a vpn? What ISP are you using? Some providers offer antivirus free but they use a VPN to do it. Mine was Cox and went to my settings and deleted the cox VPN. Haven’t had an issue since.

Wifi just quit on my iPhone 11 Pro and iPad Pro 10.5 about an hour ago - both on iOS 14.0.1. I've tried restarting and/or resetting network settings and neither worked. Wifi is working fine on my iMac. It would be really helpful to get a fix for this.

Okay, after a couple of sessions on the phone with Apple it turns out that in my situation I have an app called Lockdown. It was diddling with the VPN configuration so the solution was to go into Settings-General-VPN-delete VPN configuration. Voila! Wifi returned to my devices.

Shut off your iPad and you iPhone will work.

The 14.0.1 problems needs to be addressed now!

I did not upgrade my iPhone to14.0.1

got a new iPad that had the update, and while the iPad was running my cell phone would not connect to Wi-Fi. My iPhone was useless driving my car because my laptop was turned on. So I called my sister to have her shut off my iPad, and my Iphone started working like a champ.

i’ve never used a VPN. I have not updated my iPhone to the 14.0.1, Nor will I until Apple repairs these bugs.

I am truly disappointed in Apple’s release is over the past couple of years, and the newer releases seem to cause more problems than a cure.

Totally agree!

If all millions of users trapped in this would give themselves ONE mission this week: to call support and overwhelm their lines on that issue, perhaps someone would wake up and kick some asses in the shop....
