IOS 15.6 — Lost Wifi
I update IOS 15.6 and now I cannot connect to my Wifi. I restarted my phone-didn’t work. I forgot my network and rejoined it-didn’t work. Can you help me get back into Wifi?

I’m currently working from home. I can try to restart my router after work. However, all of my other devices are connected to Wifi. It was only after I updated IOS 15.6 did it stop connecting to my Wifi.
When you updated, your phone lost its lease on its IP address, and had to request a new IP address from the router. If the router hasn’t been restarted in a while it can fail to assign a new IP address. This doesn’t affect other devices, which already have IP devices; just “new” devices trying to connect.
Restart your router by removing all power for 15 seconds or so.
Is it just one network, or all networks?
Lawrence, during my lunch I restarted my router like you instructed. That did the trick. I appreciate your help. Have a good weekend!!
Yes, stay cool!
