Hi guys,

Ever since upgrading to iOS 11 I’ve noticed auto connecting to known WiFi has not been happening. My WiFi is on, and I can manually connect to known networks by clicking on the WiFi network however it will no longer auto connect. I know there is a feature in iOS 11 that your phone will not auto connect to patchy public WiFi however it’s happening even on my home WiFi. Is anyone else experiencing this? When I was on iOS 10 it all worked fine. I have an iPhone 7+ Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked the settings of the WiFi networks you are seeing this with to see if auto-join is enabled?
