Unable to receive SMS texts after iOS 15.5 update

I updated yesterday to iOS 15.5 and now I am unable to receive any SMS texts. I no longer can get a text needed for two factor authentication and texts from contacts I have that do not use iMessage are not coming through.

I have reviewed all those issues and still no SMS texts come through. It's interesting that under Cellular Data Options in iOS 15.5 there is no indication of what cellular network technology I am using. Previously my phone indicated I was using LTE...now I wouldn't know as option not indicated. In the past when I had this problem I had to disable VoLTE and select LTE to receive SMS texts. I don't know why that worked but it did.
