Hey everyone.. not sure if this helps but I had this issue and found that wifi settings on the iPhone automatically ses the “Private address” under wifi settings to on. So this creates a new MAC address and if you are using Mac filtering on your router (like I was) it will block connectivity. Turned this off and all started working as it was before 😊

This is a pathetic copy/paste answer. Why would you immediately blame router/modem/isp when the asking person already said other devices in the same wifi network work OK?


I'm facing the same issue. I upgraded iPadOS last night and I have a horrible time staying connected on the ipad, while all my laptop/desktop/appleTV/cameras stay online perfectly fine. Do you still till it's my ISP/router/modem having problem?

Same issue , I use iPad Pro 2021 and ASUS rog phone 3 for gaming, my iPad disconnects a lot while I play call of duty mobile, it’s frustrating to get disconnected during T1 scrims, problem after updating to 14.7.1 before it was fine. Hope we get a fix in 14.8 asap.

Not true. It could be a combination of certain settings that cause this. It could be the fact that it’s happening to a lot of users but they don’t notice because their phone switched to cellular data. I too am having this issue. Everything in the house(LIFX bulbs, stereo, Alexa, laptops, TVs) connecting to WiFi and internet. iPhone connects to WiFi but has no IC. It will get IC intermittently for a few second then it loses it. I am not sure what is causing the issue. I didn’t notice until after a storm. That doesn’t mean I wasn’t having the issue earlier but didn’t notice. Thanks
