Mac studio stopped connecting to wifi

I have been using my new mac studio for 6 months with no issues connecting to our home wifi network (which has good coverage through the whole house). All devices (computers, phones, tablets) have excellent wifi connection but for the past couple of weeks my Mac studio wifi connection has been degrading and now won't connect at all.

I have rebooted/restarted routers and my computer. What else should I try? Why is it only myac studio that has issues?

Mac Studio, macOS 14.6

By far the easiest way to cause poor performance, instability, overheating and crashing is to install ANY third-party speeder-uppers, Cleaners, Optimizers, or Virus scanners, Bit Torrent, or a VPN that you installed yourself.

¿are you running anything like that?

Have a similar issue with Mac Studio. Think there is a WiFi diagnostic's one can run when by holding the option or command key when selecting the menu bar WiFi strength icon. It creates a WiFi diag tar file. Maybe someone can help state what are good levels in db for noise, rec and transmit, etc.

Is it set to auto connect? Check to be sure the "forget this network" is not checked.
