How to Fix iPhone Keeps Disconnecting from Wi-Fi

I will teach you how to fix the problem of the iPhone constantly disconnecting from Wi-Fi

If your iPhone keeps disconnecting from a Wi-Fi network, the problem may be in the software or the backend. Perhaps there's a problem with your router's settings, or perhaps you're out of signal range. Additionally, the problem may have deeper roots when hardware components fail and eventually need to be replaced.

How to fix the problem of the iPhone constantly disconnecting from Wi-Fi

If your iPhone keeps disconnecting from a Wi-Fi network, the problem may be in the software or the backend. Perhaps there's a problem with your router's settings, or perhaps you're out of signal range. Additionally, the problem may have deeper roots when hardware components fail and eventually need to be replaced.

What to do when your iPhone's Wi-Fi connection keeps disconnecting?

Note: The procedures outlined in this article may not apply universally across all iPhone models and iOS versions. Due to variations in hardware and software interfaces, the location and name of certain settings may differ slightly. Refer to the user guide for your specific device for additional help.

1) Make sure you're within network range 

Make sure you're within network range when connected to the Wi-Fi network. Check the signal strength indicator on your iPhone. If you're out of range, the connection will drop frequently.

To check if you're within range of the network, move closer to your Wi-Fi router and keep your device in use for a while. If it doesn't disconnect and stays continuously connected, it's more than likely that your current setup is weak and sometimes drops out often.

2) Check if airplane mode is enabled.

 If airplane mode is enabled on your device, your iPhone will block all connections. This means you won't be able to connect to any wireless or cellular networks. Any apps or services that require an active internet connection won't work properly.

Turn off airplane mode, if it's enabled, via Control Center.

To check if airplane mode is enabled on your iPhone: 

• Swipe down from the top right corner of your screen to open Control Center.
• Look for the airplane mode icon. It looks like an airplane.
• If the icon is blue, airplane mode is enabled. If the icon is gray, it's disabled.

3) Check if you are connected to the correct Wi-Fi network 

Sometimes, you may have saved passwords for networks you have previously connected to, which can automatically connect your phone to a different Wi-Fi network than intended. There is a chance that the network you have connected to may not have an active internet response.

Check if you are connected to the correct Wi-Fi connection through the network settings.

To check if you are connected to the correct network, go to your phone's Wi-Fi settings and check if the network name listed is the one you want to connect to.

4) Disable Wi-Fi Assist 

On iOS, Wi-Fi Assist allows you to stay connected to the internet by switching to the cellular network when the Wi-Fi connection is poor. While this can be beneficial for your workflow, it can lead to higher bills and costs from your data provider.

Wi-Fi Assist automatically enables cellular data when Wi-Fi signals are weak or unstable. If you're having trouble staying connected to a single network, you can turn off Wi-Fi Assist to see if it helps fix the problem. To turn off Wi-Fi Assist: 

• Go to your iPhone's Settings.
• Tap Cellular or Settings > Cellular Data.
• Scroll down and turn off Wi-Fi Assist.

5) Restart your iPhone

 A recent update or app installation could have caused glitches with your device's network settings. To clear this up, try restarting your phone. A simple restart can fix problems that would otherwise be hard to explain.

A simple restart can clear up any bugs or glitches.

To restart your iPhone manually: 

• Press and hold the power button and either volume button.
• When the slider appears, drag it to turn off your device.
• Wait about 30 seconds for your device to power off.
• Press and hold the power button to restart your iPhone.

6. Disable all VPN connections 

If you're using a VPN on a slow internet connection, there's a good chance your network speed will really take a hit. This is because a VPN will encrypt your internet traffic, and it could lead to network congestion and unstable internet response.

Make sure you are not connected to a VPN when trying to troubleshoot.

Most VPNs can slow down your network speed. Using these settings on weak connections can limit your browsing speed. Also, some firewalls can misinterpret VPN traffic as malicious and block it. To the user, this may look like a simple disconnect on their device.

7) Reset Network Settings 

After completing all the checks, you have the option to reset network settings as a last resort. This action will clear all Wi-Fi networks, passwords, mobile data

8) Reset your iPhone 

Before you move on to irreversible measures, make sure that the same connection is not causing any problems on other devices. You can do this by connecting to the same network from a different device and checking if the connection drops.

Your last resort may be to reset your iPhone to factory settings.

From the user side, your last option may be to reset your iPhone. Resetting it will close it. 

9) Contact your Internet Service Provider

If all else fails, your only option is to contact your Internet Service Provider for assistance. Before you do so, make sure that your iPhone is receiving a network signal and that it is indeed connecting to it. If the problem is “loss” of connection and all of the above causes are ruled out, the problem most likely lies with the router or the backend via your Internet Service Provider.
