WhatsApp won’t connect to my Sky WiFi

‎27 Feb 2024 06:47 PM

WhatsApp doesn't connect in my home. When I switch WiFi off on my iPhone 12, it works. So the connection to my modem is the problem.

The suggestion is to change the age setting in Sky Broadband Shield to a less restrictive one because the default interferes with some social media apps.
