Hi,

I know two things that you can try to resolve your problem. Please read below

Step 1: Check settings & Restart

Make sure Wi-Fi is on. Then turn it off and on again to reconnect.
Make sure the Airplane mode is off. Then turn it on and off again to reconnect.
Press your phone's power button for a few seconds. Then, on your screen, tap Restart. If you don't see "Restart," press and hold the power button for about 30 seconds until your phone restarts.

Step 2: Find the problem type.

Phone: Try connecting to the Wi-Fi network with another device, like a laptop computer or friend's phone. If other devices can use the network, the problem is likely with your phone.

Network: Check whether your phone can connect to another Wi-Fi network, like a friend's house or a public network. If your phone can connect elsewhere, the problem is most likely with the network.

Internet: If your phone connects to the Wi-Fi network but still has no internet, the problem is most likely with your internet connection.
