Nothing changed with iOS 14.2, still not able to connect to any network!

Same here with my 8 Plus that cannot connect to any wifi after updating from 13.7 to 14.1. I tried "everything" (restore from backup or as new, reset network settings, tested 5 different routers, deactivated private address, no vpn app installed, downgrade to 14.0.1, fresh 14.1 restore via DFU mode etc.). Now it lies in the corner and ends its existence as a paperweight! Great job...!
