iPhone 11 Pro Max not connecting to wifi; suddenly!

Not sure what is going on here but my wifi SSID’s are visible, I can connect on other devices and my phone has been connecting to it perfectly fine for the last year and a half.

All of the sudden today it asks for the wifi password and after I enter it it says unable to connect. Out of nowhere this just started.

All other 32-33 devices in the house are connecting fine.

My router is a Netgear RAX120

  • Also, on my phone I’ve reset network settings to see if it would fix itself and nothing changed along with restarting my phone.

         Recent iOS update?  Is Access Control enabled on the router?

         Not all on the same radio band?

         Not RAX120v2?  Look for "Model" on the product label.  Firmware
      version?  Connected to what?

        iPhone has been on 14.4 the latest update since it came out without issues.

        The Netgear router shows no update either.

        I’m interested in this Access Control! I need to find what this is and how to figure out if this is keeping it from connecting.
