Problems with data following upgrade to 17.1.1

I upgraded my iPhone 15 Pro to 17.1.1 and immediately following this I received a text from my service provider (Vodafone) which stated:


It’s time to get connected. To enable data on this device, connect to a Wi-Fi network and head to https://deviceguides.vodafone.co.uk/set-up-your-phone-for-internet Then select your device, follow the simple steps and you’ll be good to go.


Obviously this means something has changed with the data settings on the device, that never usually happens when I have upgraded before. I didn’t follow the instructions immediately as I still had 3G at that point so thought it was all good and it would return to normal shortly.


Immediately following the upgrade my data has been significantly worse. I live in a city centre and would constantly have 5G and I barely get 3G anymore, and sometimes lose data entirely. My Wi-Fi connectivity also seems to be worse. I have followed the steps through from Vodafone to ensure everything is set up correctly and it is, so the problem must lie with the new iOS update.


Apple please investigate this and fix it.

After Update to 17.1.1 on IPhone 15 Pro Max, my data is NOT working either.


I reset my phone, I turned cellular on and off, I tried airplane mode, I tried turning off the cellular line and turning it back on.


WiFi and calls work just fine. iMessage via wifi is fine, but on 5G or LTE, no ability to use maps, text or send messages. SMS doesn’t work either.


this is most probably man Apple issue.

Im on T-MOBILE.

It not Apples issue to investigate, escalate the issue to Vodafone, since they provide you with cellular data.

Yet cellular data, SMS and MMS is a T-mobile feature, things that aren't working on your phone.
