MacBook Wifi Connection Issue

Hi -

I have a 2020 13" MacBook Pro with M1 chip. My OS is Ventura 13.2.1

Since past few updates to OS (not sure when this started, but not there when machine was new) I find it takes over 5 minutes for my wifi connection to get re-established when starting or re-starting.

Sometimes to speed up the process, I have toggled the wifi switch (in the menu bar) on & off a few times, and that seems to get the connection re-established.

Does anyone know if this a common issue, or just me, and if common/known, is there a cure?

Many thanks in advance!

Jay
