Iphone 14 Pro Max says Incorrect WiFi Password (iOS 16.6)

My iPhone kept saying "incorrect password" when connecting to the WiFi, even though the password was obviously correct. I tried rebooting the phone, resetting network settings, but nothing worked. Then, for some reason it did connect finally. I thought all was well, but then it disconnected again later in the day while it was asleep in my pocket. When I woke it up it tried to connect to WiFi automatically like it always does, and now it's giving me the "incorrect password" again, even though it was already connected and I haven't changed anything!


How do I fix this?

if it was me then I would look into changing the wifi ssid is another wifi network close by use the same name

then that could cause it, maybe also look into if separate passwords could be set on the wifi routers 5Ghz band and 2.4Ghz band
