Iphone 12 mini wifi issue with 5G setting

I bought my iphone 12 mini recently, I really love the phone, specifically for the size. But it has a weird issue. The wifi suddenly disconnected and need to turn off and on to work again.


Disabling private address in wifi setting reduce the frequency of the issue but not resolved yet.


I tested in 2.4G in my wifi setting and it works fine. So the problem is in 5G wifi only.


When apple will address this issue and rollout the fix??

Hi there amityleo,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you are having an issue with your iPhone disconnecting from Wi-Fi when connected to your 5G network at home. Does this issue happen if you connect to a different 5G network? If not, check your router settings are correct for the iPhone: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points.


Since you said it seems to happen when using a private Wi-Fi address, learn more about using that feature here: Use private Wi-Fi addresses in iOS 14, iPadOS 14, and watchOS 7.


We hope this helps!
