Solved: iPhone not holding WiFi

After upgrading to iOS 16.1 and then 16.1.1, my iPhone was not holding my WiFi. I have had this iPhone 12 for years and it held my home WiFi without issues. My home WiFi is the same and has been for many years.

Turn off your 5G by going into Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Options > Voice & Data, and choosing LTE. This will enable your WiFi to hold your iPhone or iPad.

iPhone 13 drops BOTH WiFi and cellular connection overnight My iPhone 13 is dropping both the WiFi and cellular connection overnight. It occurs at home and at work (I work 48 hr shifts) so it’s not isolated to one location. Every morning I have to shutdown and restart. Simply switching airplane mode, WiFi or cellular does not resolve. It requires a full shutdown. Running iOS 16.1.2

iPhone 14 Mobile Data Not Working - Network Issues I recently bought an iPhone 14 pro. Randomly I lose the cellular data connection but it still displays as 4g connected. I can only access the internet after restarting my phone. I tried turning data/airplane mode on and off as well but didn’t work. This has happened to me 3 times in the course of 4 days since buying the phone. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

iPhone won't automatically connect to car Wi-Fi My iphone used to be able to Auto-Join my car Wifi with SW ver 15, but when i upgraded to SW ver 16, my phone stopped Auto-Join Car Wifi and now I have to connect manually. I do not have any issues auto-joining Home network or any other Auto-Join networks. This seems to only impact my Car Wifi. I have also turned "Private Wi-Fi Address" On and Off and that did not work. Is anyone else seeing this issue with the latest Software release? Thanks! [Re-Titled by Moderator]
