Internet issues since iOS 15.0.2 update

Since the latest update my phone and my wife’s phone are struggling with a slow or no internet connection whether on WiFi or 4G. We’ve powered them down, cleaned the SIM cards reset the WiFi router but all to no avail. I think there is defiantly an issue with the latest update. I can’t even complete a speed test on either connection. My laptop and work phone both work fine.

After some toying around... what seemed to have worked was after I turned off Private Relay. I haven't had any connectivity issues since then in the past couple days, whereas the connectivity issue was almost every few hours for me when I had Private Relay on.


So I'll leave this feature off until it goes out of beta mode I guess.

Same here. After updating to 15.1, I have Internet issues on two occasions on my SE (1st gen), both occurred after midnight. While WIFI does not work at all, 4G works after a reboot. Curiously, Safari does not work with either WIFI or 4G, saying "Safari cannot open this page because your phone is not connected to the Internet", but other Apps are working fine on 4G, but not on WIFI. Because Safari refuses to work at all, I have to download another browser from the App Store in order to browse the Internet. All of these are done in cellular data of course since WIFI is not working.


In both occasions, the issue disappeared after a couple hours. I believe this is a software issue related to the iOS 15 based on what I observed.
