Manage iCloud Private Relay for specific websites, networks, or system settings - Apple Support
If you experience an issue with successfully connecting your iPhone, iPad, or Mac to our BYOD networks, you may see an alert regarding iCloud Private Relay.
iCloud Private Relay is designed to protect your internet privacy, though some networks and websites don’t like it.
You can turn off Private Relay for a specific cellular or Wi-Fi network.
If you turn off Private Relay, network providers and websites can monitor your internet activity in Safari.
If a network doesn't work with Private Relay
Private Relay can be turned off for a specific network using the Limit IP Address Tracking setting.*
If you turn off Private Relay for a specific network, the setting for that network applies to all of your devices for which Private Relay is turned on.
If you regularly switch between multiple network configurations (such as Dual SIM or Wi-Fi and Ethernet), make sure that this setting is set for each network independently.
You can try to turn Private Relay back on for a specific network in Wi-Fi, Cellular Data Options, or Network settings.
*In earlier versions of iOS, iPadOS, and macOS, this setting is called iCloud Private Relay.
