Roam WIFI keeps failing

Roam V2 cannot connect to iPhone Wifi. Forget to upload routes at home. Go to routes/update on Roam. Tries to connect Wifi, never connects. I confirm ELEMNT App has the iPhone network, but it shows as an established network without bandwidth. I turn off and reset everything including phone. When I reconnect iPhone it shows as 5 wifi bars but will not connect to synch routes. When I got my Roam a couple of years back, this worked reliably. This year I have continuous problems. Today was the worst, had to ride 45m using RWGPS.

any ts suggestions
