This will be my final post on this subject as I have gone from being dropped numerous times /day to almost a week w/o being dropped once. Upgrade to a WiFi6 (AX) router (I bought TP Link AX1500 WalMart $69) Set your security to WPA2/WPA3 transitional or WPA3 WPA2/WPA3 will allow connection to older devices For latency I recommend using just 5Gig Hz , I turn off 2.4 as there are just too many devices that interfere (microwave, home phone, neighbors router, etc...) - My bandwidth remains unchanged but is still the Max that I pay for through my ISP (I wasn’t having problems with latency just kept being dropped). Good luck folks

As a F/U to my earlier post. After upgrading to a new WiFi 6 router and enabling WPA2/WPA3 it has been 48 hours and I have yet to lose connection. Keep in mind iPad Pro running iPad OS 14.2 and it is AX (WiFi6) capable. I have an old iPhone7 and it has yet to lose connection as well.

I have been dealing with this issue ever since 14.0 rolled out. I’m currently on iPad OS 14.2 and have tried all the fixes and everyday I have to re-acquire my Wi Fi multiple times throughout the day. One of the comments I read from Apple leads me to believe this has more to do w/ security encryption standards on your WiFi rather than anything else. I will be installing a new AX router ($ 70) today w/ WPA3 encryption. I hope this solves the problem because the disconnects happen at the most annoying times. All of the current fixes listed on the Internet work the same as my connection drops sporadically and no one fix seems to be any more effective than the rest. Additionally, my understanding is that once you have committed to iOS 14.0/ iPad OS 14.0 or higher you can no longer go back to 13. I believe we are all being forced to upgrade to WiFi6 aka AX w/ WPA3 encryption.
