I'm facing an issue where if a WiFi network is turned off and back on within a short time frame (2-4 seconds), iOS still shows the device as connected but does not send a new DHCP request. This causes a problem for my network device, which relies on the DHCP request to assign an IP address. Without the request, the device is unable to establish a socket connection properly. Is there any way to force iOS to send a DHCP request immediately when reconnecting to the network in this scenario? Are there any known workarounds or configurations that might help ensure the DHCP process is re-triggered? Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi I am developing the packet tunnel extension on a SIP enabled device. If I build the app and notarize and install it on the device, it works fine. If I modify, build and execute the App (which contains the system extension), it fails with below error. 102.3.1.4 is production build. And 201.202.0.101 is for XCode build. SystemExtension "<<complete name>>.pkttunnel" request for replacement from 102.3.1.4 to 201.202.0.101 Packet Tunnel SystemExtension "<<complete name>>.pkttunnel" activation request did fail: Error Domain=OSSystemExtensionErrorDomain Code=8 "(null)" If SIP is disabled, it works fine. Is there a way the system extension can be developed even if SIP remains enabled?

Dear Apple: In our app, we will call the - (void) applyConfiguration:(NEHotspotConfiguration *) configuration completionHandler:(void (^)(NSError * error)) completionHandler; interface of NEHotspotConfigurationManager on Apple devices. However, we are encountering a problem where the connection to the 2.4G hotspot fails, and the error is nil when it fails. We checked the Wi-Fi air interface and found that the Apple phone does not send a probe request before connecting to the hotspot. However, we are unclear why the Apple device does not send the probe request frame. Could you please help us understand when the probe request frame is not sent during the hotspot connection and how to trigger it to send the probe request frame every time? Thank you.

I am making a USB attached IoT device that follows the Matter approach to connectivity (IP/mDNS/DHCP). I am having conflicts with it as it appears to MacOS as an Ethernet adapter and this is causing it to be assigned as a "default" route, interfering with routing when my Mac is connected to NAT based WiFi. I'd like to be able to hint to MacOS & iPadOS that this is not a routable private network, the subnet should be respected and a default route should not be assigned to it, otherwise the order of the device connection is used by the IP routing tables and I am concerned my non-routable private network will initialize before Wifi and block NAT based internet connectivity. How can I hint to MacOS/iPadOS "this is not a routable private network, this is not a NAT, do not assign me a default route beyond the subnet I have provided you."

We use Boost ***** (1.86.0) for WebSockets in an iOS application using a self-signed certificate. The ***** WebSocket client works fine on iOS 18.1 and every other OS (Windows, Android, Linux, etc...) but not iOS 18.3.1 and possibly versions before 18.3.1 but later than iOS 18.1. Has anyone else ran into this issue and how did you resolve? What could have changed after iOS 18.1 that would prevent a WSS Websocket from connecting that works fine on iOS 18.1?

Hi we want to use CONNECT-IP extension within the MASQUE protocol suite. we want to be able to reroute ICMP packets from our machine and redirect them to our MASQUE proxy. we want to avoid a creation of virtual interface or modifying the routing tables. is it possible, if so, how can it be achieved. thanks

Hi there, I'm trying to build a MacOS VPN application from scratch. My VPN application is slightly from normal ones, It will include an authentication token and underlying process information (pid, application path etc.) in each connection made to the VPN gateway. Consider it a poor man's zerotrust implementation. NetworkExtension and PacketTunnel is a must, thus to retrieve process information via audit tokens. However, I'm unable to find any working examples that can be built on MacOS 15.X. I tried to open an TSI case but didn't receive anything useful. Anyone?

We use URLSessionWebSocketTask for web socket connection. When get error we reconnect - recreate new URLSessionWebSocketTask. Test case: off wifi on iOS device; get error(s) URLError.notConnectedToInternet. When on wifi correct create new task with connect. This working on iOS 12, 14, 15, 16, 17. But on iOS 18 we get error URLError.notConnectedToInternet without correct connection. class WebSocketManager { ... func openConnection() { webSocketTask?.cancel(with: .goingAway, reason: nil) webSocketTask = urlSession?.webSocketTask(with: urlRequest) webSocketTask?.resume() listen() } func closeConnection() { webSocketTask?.cancel(with: .goingAway, reason: nil) webSocketTask = nil } private func listen() { webSocketTask?.receive { [weak self] result in guard let self else { return } switch result { case .failure(let error): delegate?.webSocketManager(self, error: error) case .success(let message): switch message { case .string(let text): delegate?.webSocketManager(self, message: .text(text)) case .data(let data): delegate?.webSocketManager(self, message: .data(data)) @unknown default: fatalError() } listen() } } } } Delegate: func webSocketManager(_ webSocketManager: WebSocketManagerType, error: Error) { webSocketManager.openConnection() }

I was trying to call getsockopt(fd, SOL_LOCAL, LOCAL_PEERCRED, ...), and by mistake passed a wrong value for the second parameter where it should be SOL_LOCAL. But the call still succeeded. Then I did more experiments and passed more random values for the second parameter, all succeeded. It seems there is a lack of parameter check in the implementation of getsockopt() , where it should return errors if people pass invalid parameters instead of succeeding silently. Hope the Apple engineers can help to validate and fix it.

hi everybody, When I use the following code to connect to WiFi network, an error message of "error=null" or "error='Error Domain=NEHotspotConfigurationErrorDomain Code=11 "" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=}' " will occur. It has been uploaded to Feedback. Feedback ID： FB16819345 (WiFi-无法加入网络) NEHotspotConfiguration *hotspotConfig = [[NEHotspotConfiguration alloc] initWithSSID:ssid passphrase:psk isWEP:NO]; [[NEHotspotConfigurationManager sharedManager] applyConfiguration:hotspotConfig completionHandler:^(NSError * _Nullable error) { }];

Hello, A quick background: I am developing an App that receives a data stream from a device through its Wi-Fi network. The device itself is not connected to the internet, so the app won't be either. Now, I am adding a new feature to the App that would require internet connection during the data stream. Consequently, my users would need to use their cellular data. On later versions of iPhone, the phone would occasionally detect the lack of internet connection and asks the user via a pop-up if they want to use their cellular data. However, this behavior is not consistent. So my question is- can we programmatically invoke this pop-up so the user can connect to the internet? Or even better- can we program the App to use cellular data while still being connected to a Wi-Fi network? Note: I have seen mixed answers on the internet whether this is doable or not, and I know that users are able do it themselves by manually configuring their IP in their WiFi settings page, but I doubt this operation can be done through the App for security reasons. Thanks!

Context: I work on Home Assistant App, a smart home platform which connects locally to their smart home server. The Apps essentially needs the local network permission and every single user gives the permission, but some in macOS 15.3 are reporting that even though the permission is given, the app still reports it is not, and logs also confirm that. Since there is no way to reset local network permission on macOS I am kind of on a dead end here. How can the user get out of this situation? I also read https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/763753?answerId=824036022&replyId=824036022 and the TN3179 but still no solutions for my case.

I am developing an App based on Network Extension that lets all network requests on device access the Internet through a private Relay. I created an empty iOS App and only the entitlements file and ViewController.swift(Main.storyboard) file have been modified. The code was copied from the official video https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10002/ But, running the App on iPhone, the saveToPreferences API reported Error Domain=NERelayErrorDomain Code=3 "(null)" and the App doesn't look like it's changed at all (it doesn't jump to the Settings - VPN&Relay). Does anyone know why？Any reply would be greatly appreciated. The contents of the entitlements file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension</key> <array> <string>relay</string> </array> </dict> </plist> ViewController.swift: import UIKit import NetworkExtension class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Do any additional setup after loading the view. } @IBAction func tap(_ sender: Any) { let newRelay = NERelay() let relayURL = URL(string: "https://relay.example.com:443/") newRelay.http3RelayURL = relayURL newRelay.http2RelayURL = relayURL newRelay.additionalHTTPHeaderFields = ["Authorization" : "PrivateToken=123"] let manager = NERelayManager.shared() manager.relays = [newRelay] manager.matchDomains = ["internal.example.com"] manager.isEnabled = false manager.saveToPreferences { err in print(err) } } }

I am writing to seek clarification on two technical issues related to iOS frameworks (CoreBluetooth and NetworkExtension). These observations are critical for optimizing our app's performance, and I would appreciate any official guidance or documentation references. CoreBluetooth Scanning Frequency and Cycle Issue: We noticed inconsistent BLE device discovery times (ranging from 0.5s to 1.5s) despite the peripheral advertising at 2Hz (500ms interval). Questions: Does iOS regulate the BLE scan interval or duty cycle internally? If yes, what factors affect this behavior (e.g., foreground/background state, connected devices)? Are there recommended practices to reduce discovery latency for peripherals with fixed advertising intervals? Is there a way to configure scan parameters (e.g., scan window/interval) programmatically, similar to Android's BluetoothLeScanner? Test Context: Device: iPhone 13 mini (iOS 17.6.1) Code: CBCentralManager.scanForPeripherals(withServices: nil, options: [CBCentralManagerScanOptionAllowDuplicatesKey: true]) NEHotspotConfigurationManager Workflow and Latency Issue: Using NEHotspotConfigurationManager.shared.apply(_:) to connect to Wi-Fi occasionally takes up to 8 seconds to complete. Questions: What is the internal workflow of the apply method? Does it include user permission checks, SSID scanning, authentication, or IP assignment steps? Are there known scenarios where this method would block for extended periods (e.g., waiting for user interaction, network timeouts)? Is the latency related to system-level retries or radio coexistence with other wireless activities (e.g., Bluetooth)? Test Context: Configuration: NEHotspotConfiguration(ssid: "TestSSID") Behavior: Delay occurs even when the Wi-Fi network is in range and credentials are correct.

Hey there! I’ve got some exciting news about Apple’s virtio_net_hdr implementation on macOS 15.4. It’s making communication a lot smoother, with a noticeable improvement! Now, I’d love to hear your thoughts on a couple of things. First, how do you think we can validate the populated values? And secondly, should we consider reusing populated values for the other endpoint, like the ‘flags’ field? Your insights would be invaluable!

I have written an App which extracts data, over WiFi, from an instrument that creates its own WiFi Hotspot. The instrument provides no internet connection. The iPad version of this App is connects fine and is assigned an IP address by DHCP server running on a MicroChip RN171 wifi module. iOS assigns an obscure IP address on a completely different subnet. I understand this is iOS' way of "Complaining" that is wasn't assigned an IP address. Consequently in the case of the iPhone I am forced to manually assign an IP address for the iPhone, the mask and the gateway. Only then is the connection successful. Anyone know why the iPhone won't talk DHCP to a WiFi module not connected to the internet? Are there perhaps some parameters that I need to adjust on either the iPhone or WiFi module?
