iOS 17.6 Network Issues

Recently updated to iOS 17.6, so far I’ve had my mobile network connection stop working 2-3 times while out running errands. Both times it showed coverage but would not work unless I toggled my network on and off. Since then I’ve done a network reset and my hope is that it solves the issue, but have not been able to test it for sure.


Frustrating either way.

It sounds like you've already taken some good initial steps by resetting your network settings. Here are a few additional troubleshooting steps you can try:


1. **Check Carrier Settings**: Make sure your carrier settings are up to date. Go to Settings > General > About. If an update is available, you'll see an option to update your carrier settings.

2. **Toggle Airplane Mode**: If the issue occurs again, try toggling Airplane Mode on and off. This can sometimes quickly reset your network connection.


3. **Restart Your iPhone**: A simple restart can sometimes resolve network issues.


4. **Reinsert SIM Card**: Remove your SIM card and reinsert it to ensure it's seated properly.


5. **Contact Your Carrier**: If the issue persists, it might be a problem with your carrier's network. Contact your carrier to see if there are any known issues or if they can provide further assistance.


6. **Check for iOS Updates**: Occasionally, new updates are released to address bugs. Keep an eye out for any new updates that might fix this issue.


If the problem continues despite these steps, you may want to contact Apple Support for further assistance.

I updated my phone to the iOS 17.6 .. I started having network issues to where it wouldn’t connect with my carrier. I tried everything even a full factory reset. Where it ended up just locking me out. I got annoyed and just ended up upgraded my phone since I had one and I haven’t updated this one to the iOS 17.6 .. hopefully they can figure out & solve the problem already!!
