Hello, I have an iPhone XS. After installing iOS 18.2 on my device, it no longer detects Wi-Fi. How can I revert to iOS 17, or how can I make it detect Wi-Fi again?
iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 18
Hello, thank you for your response. However, when I look at the content you sent, it seems to be a suggestion for devices that have already gone through the setup. I am unable to pass the setup process because it is asking for Wi-Fi. I hope I have been able to explain my issue.
You cannot revert to iOS 17. But perhaps something here will help:

Sorry, I didn't understand that you were trying to set up your iPhone. If it can't find a valid Wi-Fi network for setup, that could mean any number of things, from issues with your WiFi service to a hardware problem with your iPhone. There are so many "moving parts" that it's going to be difficult to diagnose remotely. Some suggestions, though:
Try force-restarting your iPhone and start the setup process again and see if can then detect a network.
Force restart iPhone - Apple Support
If not, confirm that your Wi-Fi network is actually working correctly. If it is but your iPhone still won't connect, see if anything here would help:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points - Apple Support
If not, I'd suggest going to another location with a valid Wi-Fi network and see if you can connect there. If it still fails, contact Apple Support or go to an Apple Store or authorized Apple service center so they can evaluate your iPhone.
Regards.
