Hi Papamike1967,


We see you're posting from the Connect to Wi-Fi on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch resource. It seems like you've isolated the issue down to your home network. Here's some troubleshooting that may help with this:


"Get help connecting to Wi-Fi on your iPhone or iPad.

  1. Make sure that your router is on and that you're within range
  2. Make sure that Wi-Fi is on and that you can see your network
  3. If asked, enter your Wi-Fi password
  4. Check for issues with your Wi-Fi network
  5. Check your cables and connections
  6. Restart
  7. Reset your network settings"


You can read the full resource here: If your iPhone or iPad won't connect to a Wi-Fi network


We hope this helps.


Take care.
