I have two iphone 13 minis (love the compact size). Since I had them about a couple years, they worked flawlessly.

About a week or so ago, the iphones won’t connect to the wifi extender (Nighthawk X6S EX 8000) anymore. We didn’t do anything special. It shows connected to the router, but won’t show the wifi icon on top next to the battery symbol. But it will connect to direct wifi connections. Tested at home and at other wifi locations and that’s ok. Try to connect to router and no websites or reddit, etc. Bought an identicle brand new extender. Still didn’t work. Tried our old extender we packed away and it still didn’t work.

We pretty much did all the online solutions posted online that I could find like resetting network connections, forgetting connection, etc. We haven’t reset the whole phone, didn’t want to go to that extreme if possible.

Anybody else have this issue and have a solution short of getting a new phone at tmobile or going to genius bar? Thanks ahead of time for any and all help.
