Time won’t update & wifi won’t connect

I just flew from Chicago to Iceland. On my iPad the time automatically switched to the appropriate time and I was able to connect to the wifi at my hotel.


However on my iPhone XR the time will not change and I cannot connect to the wifi. I have tried shutting the phone down, waiting a while, and restarting. Nothing changed.


How do I troubleshoot this?

iPhone XR, iOS 15

When you are away from home you use Public Wi-Fi, see -> Use captive Wi-Fi networks on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

Use captive Wi-Fi networks on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch – Apple Support (UK)

-> ask the hotel for a username & password to log in to their Wi-Fi network.

 

Nowadays, Public Wi-Fi is offered for free, in big cities, shopping centers, in Public Transport (bus & train), airport, restaurants and others.

That depends on where you live.

If at the moment you are away from home and there is no Public Wi-Fi, you have to use Mobile Data, for sure go to -> Settings -> Mobile network -> Mobile Data -> ON.
