First, make sure that you don't have restrictions set for the iPhone by going to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Content Restrictions. If Content Restrictions is turned on, then there may be a setting enabled that is preventing Wi-Fi from being changed. Temporarily toggle off Content Restrictions to see if you're able to turn on Wi-Fi again.

Then 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.
