If you are a mobile iPhone user and connect your phone to any WiFi then you need to be careful because doing so can be dangerous for you. In fact, last month, a security researcher named Carl Schou discovered that if an iPhone user connects to a WiFi network named “%p%s%s%s%s%n” then WiFi will be permanently disabled in the iPhone. is. Along with this, it has also been found that there are many other WiFi networks that can ruin the iPhone forever.
This security researcher has found another WiFi network named “%secretclub%power”. The researcher said that if you find such an open WiFi network, then do not connect yourself to it because it can disable WiFi in your iPhone forever. After this, it will not work even if you reset the network repeatedly.
It is also possible that other WiFi networks with the same name can also permanently disable WiFi in iPhones. Usually, if you connect to a Wi-Fi network named “%s”, “%n” and “%p” this can permanently disable the network in iPhones. In such a situation, if you also find a Wi-Fi network with such a symbol, then do not connect your phone to it at all. Do not connect at all to WiFi networks especially those with the “%” symbol in it.
Everything will turn off once you connect to WiFi
As soon as you connect your iPhone or iPad to WiFi named “%p” or “%s” or “%n”, it will completely stop connecting to other WiFi networks. Along with this, this bug also affects the Airdrop function. After connecting to this WiFi network, even if you restart your iPhone, this problem will continue and your iPhone and iPad will not be able to connect to any WiFi network.
If you want, you can also use reset network setting to deal with this problem but it will not work completely. To reset the network, you have to go to the phone’s General then Reset and then Reset Network Settings.
what is the reason of this problem
WiFi with the name “%” is causing trouble because the “%” character syntax can be used to format variables and in programming languages. The name “%” is wasting memory due to an unpatched bug in iOS. Apple has not fixed this issue yet, so stay away from WiFi with such name and symbol.
