    All of a sudden My iphone stopped connecting to the Wi-Fi I regularly use but others were easily able to connect through their iphones. I had done the reset network setting and boom it worked. Thanks for this great video

    You forgot to try turning your VPN off and try connecting. This worked for me above all your suggestions. Then I switched the VPN back on and all is well again😀.

      @@ShizukaOG I’m really not sure but so many people have been affected by the built-in VPN it turns on and off by itself so then you can’t use your Internet when it’s turning on and off obviously so it’s best to get your own personal VPN and use that and you won’t have any issues. Well I fixed mine that way.

    If nothing helps and you’re reading the comments for help, try turning off or deleting your VPN configuration ( or if you don’t have any download one to your phone). My problem was that one of the configuration kept turning on and off constantly and when I deleted it my wifi worked fine.

    One major point to make here is also, "Do I really need to connect to a strange wifi hotspot that, 9 times out of 10, have lowest security level?". Plus a lot of times security is turned off completely.
    All cell carriers offer data plans, and unlimited is usually worth the extra 20 to 40 bucks a month.
    Again, a lot of people think that if there's wifi, they need to connect to it. This is completely wrong, especially if you have an unlimited data plan. When wifi is off your phone works as it should (hopefully), using your cell carriers data plan. This is usually better than connecting to strange WiFi networks that usually have very low security.
    I only turn on my wifi if I need to upload or download massive file(s), or I know I'm going to be streaming.

    I've had this problem with my iPhone since last summer. It started about two weeks after an iOS update so I can't blame that. It says it's connected but does it not show it in the status bar and cellular now ONLY connects with LTE. It used to spend most of the time on 4G.
    Several apps say there's simply no connection. Others still work, apparently satisfied with LTE cellular data.
    Apple support forum has several people with older and new iPhones with the same problem.
    The solution we get from Apple is to 'reset network settings.' This has helped some people but not me and not a lot of the others. I hoped the update to iOS 14 might help, but it didn't.
    This is a jet black iPhone 7 so I'm ready to upgrade. I hope THAT will solve the problem.

    I've been having to do the first option...turning wifi off/ then on, and it fixes the problem until the next time I don't use my iPhone for a while, it then reappears again. I did just reset my network settings 5 minutes ago, so it will take some time to see if that has done it, 'but' my iMac has been having a similar issue. Having had this problem off and on for some time, I took my router-modem in, and was given a new one...and I'm still having the issue, so it's doubtful it's the router-modem I believe. Unsure how to reset my network settings on my iMac, but I'll certainly give that a try! I did just do an IOS update this morning...so that shouldn't be it, plus my wife's iPhone is having the same issue, and can be very frustrating.
