Wifi connection only works with privacy setting off

My iPhone 6 Plus suddenly would not connect to my home wifi, although my other 2 devices are fine. I had to turn off the privacy setting to connect and now have to keep it off to stay connected. I have always had the the privacy setting on and this was never a problem. How can I connect to wifi and still have my privacy setting on?

I have turned my phone off and on several times, with and without out wifi on. I have also restarted my other 2 devices and they are connected just fine.

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 14

Reset your Network Settings. Tap 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.11-Feb-2020
