iPhones and iPads cannot access the internet on home Wi-Fi

No iPhones or iPads can connect to the internet while on my home Wi-Fi network. Everything was working fine Sunday but Monday morning it didn't. Wi-Fi works fine as I can print from my phone to the network printer. I even had a salesman visiting that I gave my password to so we could test it. His iPhone connected to the network but did not have internet access. Android and pc's work fine. Modem and routers have been reset. Only thing I can think of is that on Sunday I was looking at the settings of my router and network on my iPhone while trying to diagnose a connection issue with my TV. I didn't change any settings but maybe I inadvertently did something. Any thoughts on what could be wrong? It shows iPhone SE but was a 13 mini and iPad 6

Ince it's incredibly unlikely that multiple devices would develop exactly the same bizarre fault simultaneously, the issue almost certainly lies with your network, your router, or your ISPs network.


This is not an Apple problem. You undoubtedly changed something on your router when trying to fix the problems with your TV's connection.


Restore your router from the backup you made prior to making changes or reset it to the factory defaults.
