Screen Mirroring to extend Macbook Air to IPad Pro 4th gen keeps disconnecting

My Macbook Air with the M1 chip running macOS Monterey 12.3.1 and IPad Pro 4th Gen running IOS 15.4.1 extending the display consistently disconnects and using the same WiFi network with my router about 5 feet away. I'm using a google nest and don't have any other issues with other devices disconnecting.

MacBook Air (2020 or later)

Greetings, RichRichieRich.


Start by ensuring that your Mac meets the system requirements for Screen Mirroring: System requirements for Continuity on Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch 


Then, make sure that your devices are updated, as updating your OS can often help to resolve unexpected issues. 


Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Update macOS on Mac


Also, review these articles and see if any of the tips help:


Resolve Wi-Fi and Bluetooth issues caused by wireless interference

Sincerely.
