Bluetooth connectivity issues with all devices after iOS 26.1 update

So after 26.01 I started losing Bluetooth connectivity with all of my Bluetooth devices, including wireless CarPlay. Updated to iOS 26.1 and still the same problems persist. I have tried multiple resets of my network. I have completed all of the deletion of my Bluetooth devices and tried reinstalling. Somebody suggested that potentially it’s caused by a VPN third-party app I also deleted my VPN app and nothing. If anybody has any solid solutions, I would love to hear them as it’s super frustrating?
