My MBP "sees" my router, but won't stay connected long enough to hit the Apply button.

New machine, never connected to this WIFI.

It sees the modem by name but after a few seconds goes to blank. Never gets past the connection screen. No request for password.

fyi; my Surface, and both iPhones, are connected

MacOS Ventura is completely broken and impossible to use on my MacBook Pro 16 2019 Since I have updated my MacBook Pro 16" 2019 to the MacOSX Ventura 13, it has gone completely out of hand. My internet connection fails every 2 seconds and I can not even send an email. I have to refresh every page I browse at least two times. It keeps giving me "no internet connection error". Its full of bugs and despite the fact that I have reinstalled the OS three times already and talked to apple support team, still does not function. Please help.

Mac Studio (10GB) Ethernet Incompatibility with ATT/PACE 5268 Router--solution/workaround My new Mac Studio would not connect properly to my ATT/Pace 5268 1 GB router. The router and its cabling worked previously with an older Mac Mini with a 1GB ethernet interface. Furthermore, the Mac Studio ethernet worked perfectly when I brought in to the Apple Genius bar to evaluate the unit for a bad ethernet interface. Workaround: Place a basic 1GB+ switch between the ATT/Pace router and the 10GB Ethernet interface on the Mac Studio.
