iPhone 8 WiFi not working. Cannot back up to cloud. We have bought our son a new iPhone 13. His current phone is an iPhone 8 Plus. His phone will not connect to WiFi. We wanted to back it up and then transfer the data to the new phone but it won’t work and I’ve also tried to connect it to Apple support and transfer the data to the cloud but again it won’t connect. I can’t even get it to connect through iTunes using a cable. Is this a lost cause or am I missing something or is there any other advice any luminaries can offer? help………

Setting up iPhone This phone recently was reseted but when Attempting to set it up again. No matter what wifi I connect it do, it won't actually connect to wifi. After "connecting" to my wifi network, if I want to restore using iCloud backup, it presents me the message Wifi Required A wifi connection is required to restore from an iCloud backup Even though I connected and it says its connected. Its been an hour now, what do I do?
