Lost WiFi on iOS 18.1 when VPN is active

Today, WiFi stopped working on my iPhone. Turning the VPN off restored it, so it was the VPN. I changed the Protocol from Smart to Stealth and now VPN works again. Anyone else having issues with the VPN on iOS 18.1?

All works fine, I use Wireguard though

I’m not having any issues. 18.1 and “Smart” protocol.

You made the right choice by moving protocols. It looks like the VPN protocol can sometimes not work with iOS updates. People who are also on iOS 18.1 might have the same problems with ProtonVPN. If other people are having the same problem, you could try a different protocol or even update the VPN app itself to fix the link problem.
