Wifi and Freezing Screen

Ever since upgrading to ios15, I keep losing connection to home wifi and my iPad Pro at least 4 times a day. Reconnection is simple but halfway through something, bang, no wifi.


Also screen freezes and have to wait it catches up, have to stop typing till it comes back.


on ios15.4.1 and still no better, hope 16 is better, or Samsung here I come.

Troubleshooting iPhone WiFi:


Restart the Router:

If there is no Wi-Fi signal, then apparently you have no IP address. So, start by restarting the router.


Three Other Thoughts:

A. Clear Temporary Internet Files:

If connecting is unsuccessful, try clearing out your Temporary Internet FilesHistoryCache, and Cookies

Go Here: Clear your Safari Browser History and Set Up Content Blockers on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


and...


B. Try manually restarting your iPhone:

  1. Go To: Settings
  2. Select: General
  3. Scroll to: the Very Bottom
  4. Select: Shut Down
  5. Slide Finger: to the Right
  6. Wait: 30 Seconds
  7. Power One: the iPhone
  8. Try this Once More


and...


C. Troubleshooting Connectivity:

Wi-Fi: If your iPhone won’t Connect to a Wi-Fi Network - Apple Support

Troubleshooting iPhone Updates:

Having recently updated your iPhone, it may be a bug in the update. So, report this to Apple. Apple won't get back to you directly, but the more feedback they receive on this, the more they will know what is going on, and what fixes to include in updates to come.

  1. Go Here: Feedback - iPhone - Apple
  2. Select: "Bug Report" for the "Feedback Type"
  3. Comment: on when the issue began(recently after an update), and how you have troubleshot it thus far. Include the URL of this post: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253807585
  4. Proceed from there as necessary
