iPhone 13 Pro and iPad won’t connect to Wi-Fi after the iOS 26 update

I have updated my iPhone 13 PRO & iPad 8th Gen to ios 26, but after that they will not connect to my Wifi. I have already followed instructions:

Toggle Airplane Mode
Restart your iPhone
Restart your network equipment
Forget and rejoin the Wi-Fi network
Reset Network Settings:

Nothing seems to work. Do we wait for a new update on the ios or how can this be fix please!

Yea, same here. I have the iPhone 13 mini and it won't even connect to bluetooth either. Not sure what to do now.

Open Settings. Can you turn Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on? If neither can be turned on your phone has a hardware problem, the failure of the C band radio chip.

If you CAN turn them on and you have a 3rd party VPN installed, even if you are not using it, 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.

I’m having the exact same issue! I would have hoped they would fix it by now! Definitely considering getting rid of my iPhone

I have same issue with iPhone 12mini. I’ve tried everything and the update to iOS 26 made it worse. My phone battery loses its charge in an hour and no internet.

Well that’s the thing they have and I’ve done everything and my iPhone 11 didn’t get the new update yet and works just fine so it’s definitely the update that did it

Did you try ANY of the troubleshooting suggestions I made?

And why don’t you just install the update? Go to Settings/General/Software Update and install it.
