If "iPhone" is connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot with a specific name, the Wi-Fi function will fail, which creates a problem that cannot be fixed even if it is restarted.
It is reported that the error was discovered by the "reverse engineer" Carl Schou and first reported by BleepingComputer, based on an attempt to connect to a specific name hotspot. Mr. Schou first noticed this problem when he tried to connect SSID to its own hotspot named "% p%s%n".
The author tested it with iPhone equipped with "iOS 14.6". In this way, the Wi-Fi really doesn't work, and the restart is not fixed.
To modify, visit Settings > General > reset > reset Network Settings.
Then, you need to reset the network settings.
Then again, what should be done to prevent things from happening? In any case, it's almost impossible to stop someone from setting up a Wi-Fi hotspot without a password with that name out of mischief (or using it as a loophole, or even a hacker involving more malicious behavior).
In order not to automatically connect to the hot spot in question, visit Settings > Wi-Fi, and make sure that the project that automatically connects to the Internet share is set to confirm connection or disconnect.
In addition, the author confirms that this problem does not seem to affect users of "Android" devices. I've tried it on several portable devices, but they all connect without a problem.
