Hello,
Last October, I upgraded Mac OS Ventura on my MacBook Pro (M1Max), and the moment the OS update was complete, my laptop was disconnected from the internet through WiFi. I took the laptop to the service centre, and they reinstalled the old operating system. It had been a disaster, and I had lost nearly everything.
I've been afraid to upgrade to Ventura since then, despite the fact that it's been 8 months.
Should I retry updating Ventura? Please advice...
Sorry you experienced this Wifi connection issue when upgrading to Ventura
Often times this could be a result of the Router / Access Point maybe broadcasting in an older version or newer version of WPA2 or WPA 3
Other times, just doing a Restart of the Router / Access Point may or may clear up this issue
For additional information related to Wifi, this article from Apple may provide extra useful information

Then there is the possible Third Party Software used on this computer that is interfering with the connection over Wifi
Any Third Party Applications that will interfere with the normal operation of the OS, is an invitation for disaster.
1 - Disk Cleaner
2 - Third Party Security Software
3 - VPNs >>> https://gist.github.com/joepie91/5a9909939e6ce7d09e29
FYI - have 2 M1 and 1 M2 machine
The M1 machine started with macOS 11 Big Sur and the M2 started with Ventura
Each M1 machine have since been upgraded to macOS 12 Monetary and onto macOS 13 Ventura without issue
Additional - since May 2023 have switched ISP and moved from DSL to Fibre Optic.
The new Router Broadcasts (Tri Band ) in the older 2.4 gHz, 5 gHz and a newer 6 gHz with Personal WPA3 Personal
No issues with Wifi connection
EDITED
