iPhone 15 PM WiFi and Data Connection Issues

Hello,


I recently purchased an iPhone 15 Pro Max yesterday and I have been having major issues with the WiFi and data connection (although the data connection is just slow)


When I connect to my WiFi I get full bars but I cannot use the WiFi as there is seemingly no connection whatsoever... nothing loads whatsoever and I cant do anything... I have already tried resetting my network settings on the phone and after the network settings are reset the WiFi works for about 30 minutes to 1 hour and then it reverts back to the state of not working at all (still with full bars)


I dont have this issue with my PC, and nobody else in my household has this issue (iPhone 14 Pro Max and 2 iPads)


Thanks,

Problem solved with using a newer modem. I have Centurylink fiber with a fairly old modem. Attached is a newer “flash router” for more Wifi channels. Switching to the flash router 5G WiFi worked.

In discussion with Centurylink support, the tech noted: “your modem is only for WPA2 and the IOS of your phone is WPA3. So I highly suggest to replace your modem.”

So, newer modem seems to be the solution.
