WiFi Issues with iOS16.4.1 ?

Update: the problem resurfaced 30 minutes later so I reckon the force restart’s only a temporary fix.

16.4.1 not working at all. Expect speeds of 20 at home (getting them on other devices). Getting 0.4 on the phone. Awful.

Running Apple 14 pro and Apple 13. Needs fixes

I have 12 Pro Max and all the other iPhones are older generations. They all worked fine till they updated the iOS. Is very frustrating!

Edited to add it’s not the iPhone, my MacBook won’t connect on Wi-Fi and that hasn’t updated the OS. What is going on?

molly ~ An iPhone 11 Pro battery is unlikely to have a Maximum Capacity of 100% – unless it's been recently replaced. So, again, does your iPhone 11 Pro still have its original battery?

And to be clearer, this icon is the Settings app:

...Tap it to open Settings app. Then scroll down to Battery and tap it. Then tap Battery Health & Charging and tell us what the Maximum Capacity % is. If its value is only "––", let us know that.

Sorry, when I re-read my post it sounded rather harsh, that wasn't the intention, was just considering what connected all the issues together.

Am sure a message on the screen requests that users connect to the power supply when they update their phone, but like you say, a few may ignore the message not appreciating the grief that may occur if it shuts down halfway through the update process.

I have an original SE which I still use in the house on wifi, and due to its age I can't update the iOS, plus its battery life is pretty abysmal and needs to be changed, nevertheless it also forgot the wifi password at the same time as all the other more modern kit, and did suffer from losing quite a few photos due being unable to connect to the iCloud for a few days last week, but it now seems to have fixed itself, or should I say, whatever was causing the issue has been fixed, makes me wonder whether it is more of a global problem than an iOS problem.

Like you say, it's good to be thorough.

Im having the exact same issue here. No WiFi icon shows up anymore even though I am connected! Can't connect to Sonos or anything in my home that is on my network.

Battery - 94%

iOS - 16.4.1

I have just updated my iPad to 16.4.1(a) and can no longer open my TESLA App. I have re-installed the app but still no joy. My iPhone is still running 16.4.1 and the TESLA App continues to run fine. (I have yet to try all other apps on my iPad!)

It’s been the same with mine. Even tho it connects I can’t run a speed test. The icon doesn’t show either. This is frustrating, it even stops me from watching any videos that I need to stream. I can only text. I can’t even make FaceTime calls

discussions on the thread should only focus on the subject which is WiFi issues with iOS16.4.1 to not confuse other users.

you can start a discussion and post your issues regarding iOS 16.3.1 so other users with the same iOS version can effectively help out to resolve your issue.

so far on this thread even if apple already did a emergency update as 16.4.1(a) it didn't help as others still encounter the same issue connecting to the WiFi

With 16.4.1 connecting to any public Wi-Fi is impossible.

This posting is all about the discussion group and nothing has been done.

Can some supervisor get on top of this please and go ahead and get this fixed. Anybody please add your postings if you’re having problems with us right now which is a serious problem.

This is the link of the existing post things that people have been talking about for quite a while now, and nobody’s been doing anything about it:

IOS16 public Wifi problem | Apple Developer Forums

let’s go ahead and get this integrated for the next update please this is really an unusual thing. The password box should be enabled first off so you can add a password to your own little hotspot within the Wi-Fi unsecured network to get around this and it’s totally gone.

This is ridiculous so if a supervisor can’t do this, Apple, go ahead and have the next level upwards of supervisors. Go ahead and take a serious look at this, because the android people are starting to come up and numbers which means less phones manufactured in China for fusion unless Apple buyers so why have that when you can keep a market share.

Have a nice day.

Nothing in the Apple Release Notes that I have for iOS 16.4.1 mentions anything about Wi-Fi.

Can you please provide a link to the information that you have?

I remember reading something about 16.4.1 fixing some wifi issues, but sadly couldn't find it in the release notes. If I remember where I read it will post.

Yes you are right, just noticed the intermittent orange light in the router but have the same issue at home. Must be a larger issue with the networks rather than Apple. Coincidence perhaps?

I don’t know, it’s hard to say what the reason is, we need to find out
