iOS 17.2 WiFi connectivity issues

Iphone 14 plus, IOS 17.2.1

Tried turning off the "private wifi network" but my phone still disconnects when I move away from the main router when I try to connect to one of the nodes, I am given the error message that password is incorrect. The only way to reconnect is to return to the main router where I connect easily (and without reentering the password).

I have also been working with TP Link/Deco related to the same issues with I-phone 14 Plus, and IOS 17.3. Although TP link is still reviewing my router logs, they mentioned that it has something to do with the Apple encryption which prevents the phone from staying connected.

in settings, my WiFi “check mark” will not appear to the left of the network name. It is continually spinning and will not connect. An immediate affect after upgrading to the current IOS 17.2.1🤬

Wi fi continues to drop in favour of 5G. All devices affected. Sooooo frustrating.

Yes, similar issues. I'm having random connection issues with apps and websites when on the cellular (VZW) connection that disappear when connected to WiFi. These started after I upgraded to 17.2. I'm also having Outlook sync issues after upgrading to MacOS 14.2 but will start a different thread for that.

Well the 15 pro became a total dud and this company became a big scam , no wifi anymore bye bye . Everything you connect to has no connction.

Never in this life i will ever buy a IOS device. Im done

The audacity to keep messing up our devices on a global scale is insane.

I am done bye apple .

Grrr more flaky software from a once great company, did the recent update & my Iphone 14pro max is slow & unresponsive like there is no wifi connection what so ever. Who was the dumb arse who let this release out into the world without proper testing? Where is the rollback patch?

I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max

Since all of the iOS 17 updates, including current iOS 17.2.1, I have horrible cell(Verizon)reception and my device download speed is 2 Mbps even though my WiFi speed is running at 1312 mbps.

I’ve closed apps, turned phone off and back on, deleted internet and cookie history etc. And I’ve only used about half of my 512GB of memory. Phone has never been like this.

Mean my iPad 7 is working fine on the latest update.

I’ve had enough of Apple. Too many iOS problems on multiple devices within the last few months. Not good enough. Can’t trust them anymore. My wifi is screwed since the latest update on my iPhone. The Apple company should be ashamed of themselves charging high end prices for the worst quality 👎

Still having major issues with connectivity to WiFi with all my Apple devices! (iPhones, Apple Watch, iPads, Mac). When is Apple going to get this fixed! Extremely cumbersome especially for iPads and computers! They have know of this issues for over 3 months and still no fix! Anybody have any tips. Have reset networks on all devices, shut off and on so many times! No other devices but Apple have this issue.

Not only do I get an Exchange account password error message, but now it just won’t connect to WiFi, even after putting the good password over and over again. All other devices (desktop or tv) use WiFi without any problems. Please, fix this!!

It's driving me crazy. I know it's the update that has broke my phone doing all the same things everyone else is describing. I have to travel an hour and half tomorrow to go to an appointment in Cambridge for the Apple store to look at it. I'm going to be so mad if they say it's faulty and make me pay for the fix. It's only 18 months old. I have spent my entire day today from 8:30 am right till now trying to sort it out. Hours on the phone with Apple tech then factory resetting. It's a joke Apple. Just own up and take responsibility and fix it

Unfortunately, no problems until 17.2. Have had to reconnect thru phone several times just to leave this message. (Argh, make that several times +1). (IOS 17.2 phone and IPADOS 17.2 M1 iPad)

Same issues on iPhone 13 pro max. Show’s connected to WIFI but nothing works. I see I'm not the only one and also afraid to update to macOS 14.2.

This has ben happening to me since I updated to iOS 17, too. 17.2 was supposed to remedy the issue, but I've still got the same problems. Incredibly frustrating!
