Hi there,
I've posted this in the broadband board as well just in case. There is a new setting in IOS 14 called 'Private address', which is enabled by default. This is a good security feature which masks your iphone's MAC address. However, it is a problem if you have MAC filtering enabled on your router, because ttutuapp here is no static MAC address to authenticate. If you have both of these enabled, you will get an error message like 'Unable to connect to network' when you try to connect to wifi with your iphone.appvalley
The solution to this is to disable MAC filtering in your router. Your phone should then connect properly as normal. Once connected, tap your wifi name to enter the settings page, and disable th e 'Private address' setting. Once you've done this, you can switch MAC filtering back on in your router settings.
Alternatively, you can leave MAC filtering off in your router settings, and keep Private address enabled.
Hope this helps
