Wi-fi and cellular keep flipping to each other. 20 times per minute.

Since iOS 26.1 I have a 13 and a 15 Pro that keep switching between cellular and wi-fi. I have searched the internet and found a dozen remedies but none fixed the issue. It is very frustrating. Is it a software issue with 26.1??

Perhaps a long shot:


Do you have a 3rd party VPN installed, even if you are not using it? If so, delete the VPN profile in Settings/General/VPN & Device Management/VPN, then restart your device. Don't just turn it off; delete the profile. If that fixes it, you can try reinstalling VPN, but probably shouldn't.
