my network SSID is set to broadcast - my iPhone says it's hidden

I recently updated my iPhone 6s to OS15.5 and noticed that while my router is set to broadcast the SSID, my iPhone sees it as a "Hidden Network". All other devices (iPads, laptops, other iPhones) see the network SSID.

Shutting down and restarting the iPhone doesn't seem to make a difference. Any ideas?

Thanks! Resetting Network Settings resolved the problem.

Forget the network, and try adding it again.

Failing that, reset network settings on the iPhone, and try again.

If your router has an available firmware update from the vendor, apply that.
