Why does my iPhone 15 keep forgetting my wifi network?

Please let me know how to fix my phone. Every time I return home my iPhone forgets my wifi network. This is very frustrating. It does not just disconnect, it forgets it. This is a 64 character random password that is a pain to reenter. None of my Android phones ever had this problem. This kind of BS makes me hate my POS iPhone 15 Max Pro when it cannot remember a password. It has 256 GB of storage, but 64 characters is too much? How can I stop my iPhone from making me reenter my network every time? Thank you for your help.

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 17

I am having the same issue. Multiple times a day I have to re-enter the passcode for my home Wi-Fi network in my iPhone 15 Pro Max. Could it be that I have both an airport express and an airport extreme working in bridge mode together for one network?

Are you Using a Public LAN or a College LAN?


If so, see about getting a new root certificate:***

Start with forgetting the Wi-Fi network on your iPhone. Then, contact the Web Master of the college, requesting a new code for logging in. Nothing can be done on your end.
