I just noticed that my iphone 7 keeps disconnecting from my WiFi after IOS 14.6 installed.
My symptom:
does anyone has the same issue after IOS 14.6 installing?
iPhone 7, iOS 14
I was aware that my iphone is still connecting from my wifi when woke up this morning. But lock screen wifi connection is still not working (turned off/on).
By chance, I restarted my iphone 7. tested Lock screen wifi connection. It worked.

Hello ruffyoung! Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
We understand that Wi-Fi keeps disconnecting for your iPhone 7 after updating to iOS 14.6. We'd like to look into this with you to see how we can help.
Let's check to see if the following resource helps: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t connect to a Wi-Fi network
Make it a great day!
I have the same issue too and it started about a week ago or so. I posted here about it: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252882312 and still haven't received a solution that solves this.
I am on iPhone 11 pro with iOS 14.6. Also, I think it started after I updated to 14.6.
Any luck for you guys?
The problem is:
I tested your suggestion, but not worked for me. "Private Address" must be turned on as Apple recommended below.
/***
Important: For better privacy, leave Private Address turned on for all networks that support it. Using a private address helps reduce tracking of your iPhone across different Wi-Fi networks.
***/
Anyway thanks for your feedback.
I am having the same problem since installing iOS 14.6 with my iPhone 12 and IPad Air 4th gen.
The response from Snickz my isn’t helpful because I can connect manually - but the wifi disconnects when the screens lock/sleeps, and doesnt auto-join my known network when it is unlocked/awake.
to get wifi, I have to go to setting, select the wifi network (which is known and auto-join IS toggled on) every single time I unlock/wake my devices.
This was never an issue before. I’ve tried resetting the network, forgetting and logging back into the networks , powering off, etc.
This seems to be a bug in 14.6
I have found a solution that works for me! Hopefully it will help you also.
Go to setting
select “wifi”
Select the wifi network that you want to auto-join.
scroll down until you see “private address”. Toggle this off.
go to every network that you want to auto-join when in range and toggle off “private address”
you will see a “privacy warning” when in the wifi menu.
from what I understand about the new “privacy address” is that it’s really for public or untrusted wifi networks, not your own secure personal trusted, home network.
