Is your Home Wifi set as a Hidden network. That would be a setting on your router for that network. When resetting Network Setting, the name of the network and password will be cleared, so it would need to be entered manually again. Any other device that previously accessed a Hidden Network will still "see" it.

What troubleshooting have you tried? Is this the only issue that you have experienced? Are there any other functions that are not working? First, try a Force Restart on the iPhone. Force restart iPhone - Apple Support

We understand that your iPhone cannot "see" your home Wi-Fi network.
Can the phone "see" any other Wi-Fi networks at the coffee shop, restaurant, friend's house, etc?
If the phone cannot see any other Wi-Fi networks at all.......Tap Settings, then Tap Wi-Fi.
Is the setting for Wi-Fi "grayed out", so you cannot move the slide switch at all ?
Given the troubleshooting steps that you have described, I suggest you make a Genius Bar appointment at the nearest Apple Store to have the hardware examined by Apple. They will explain your options. Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple

Thank you for your help, but unfortunately there is no official Apple Store in my country.
