Thank you for taking the time to post your video. This worked like a charm. It was my next step to try but always good to see it in action first. BIG HIGH FIVE!!!!
To summarize, the issue lies not with the phone itself, but whether it is able to connect to the Internet. In our case, my custom firewall blocks unrecognized MAC addresses from accessing the network without prior authorization. However, Apple's default setting of "Private Wi-Fi Address" causes the iPhone to create a new MAC address each time it connects to a network. Complicating the situation further, the phone was new and its cellular eSIM had not yet been activated. Consequently, during the iOS setup, the device was unable to recognize that connecting to the internet was not possible-a perplexing oversight by Apple.
