It connects 100%. So I then tried my old second gen 10.5" iPad Pro and it too connects 100%. The iPhone will not connect at all. All the devices are running the latest Systems. What could possibly be happening on the iPhone that would not be the same as on the iPads???? Thanks for any help or ideas.
Could be that your iPhone is using the cell network rather than WiFi. I would look at the network setting to make sure that it's connecting wifi and that it's connecting to the correct network. Also could be that you are running a firewall on your iPhone. Those are the two things that I would check first.
