Spinning beachball when trying to connect to wifi?

Every time I try to connect to wifi on my MacBook Pro (Early 2015 w/ Retina) I get the spinning beach ball of death. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it? I have to restart my computer every time I want to connect to wifi. Which is all the time, because my computer randomly disconnects from the wifi as well.

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

Possible wifi bug? Whenever I open my Macbook Pro (M1 Max on OS 12.5) after a prolonged (>30min) period of time closed, wifi doesn't connect as expected and web browsers keep reloading webpages trying to connect. The only solution so far is by restarting. Any ideas what the source of this issue might be?

MacBook Pro drops WiFi connection exactly every 10 minutes for 4 seconds Hey, my MacBook drops its WiFi Connection exactly every 10 minutes for 4 seconds and then reconnects. The WiFi symbol does not even change when this happens, but it can be found in the logs of my router and it is super annoying during Zoom calls. What I tried: Changed my wifi router but the problem still persists Reset NVRAM and smc Deleted and readded network profile Any ideas? Cheers!

MacBook Pro keeps dropping wifi I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch with touchbar that I just purchased about 2 weeks ago. Recently, my computer has started to disconnect from the wifi randomly while I’m using it. I have tried many of the solutions I’ve seen online but none of them seem to work. I know it is not a problem with my router because none of my other devices have this problem. Is anyone else having this problem with their new MacBook or does anyone know how to fix this problem?
