Issues with WiFi

I have multiple iPhones & iPads that over the last few weeks have had issues with my home WiFi, I have a BT Smart Hub 2 that connects but there is no internet, turning wifi on and off multiple times sometimes works. I have another 30 smart devices a Dell laptop and Android Tablet that all connect and work fine so the issue seems to be with Apple, I also have a MacBook that is now having the same issues. Has anyone else experienced this?

You could also tap the (i) next to the wifi network setting and turn off Private Wi-Fi address. Some routers don't like that.

What error message is Safari showing when browsing any webpage? Also, can you try going to WiFi settings, configure DNS, choose Manual, remove the existing DNS, choose Add Server, add 1.1.1.1 and save?
