My macbook air m2 is unusable because of this wifi problem.

I basically can not use my macbook anymore. I tried everything. I resetted my modem i created a new wifi profile i reinstalled the whole macOS. I tried installing new dns adresses. I tried to refresh ip. I tried wifi diagnostic. It only works when i get close to wifi. I can not use my macbook. I can not do even one task on my macbook. What do i do... There is always an exclamation mark on my wifi. It says it is connected but can't get internet connection. I am about to give up.

MacBook Air, 15.6

A few things to try:

1) start in Safe Mode and test. Same thing?

2) open System Settings->Wifi, click "Details..." and show us what you see under DNS, TCP/IP and Proxies

3) Test using a different Wifi - for example by using an iPhone personal hotspot, if available. This may help determine if the problem is with Wifi on your mac, or maybe the router

4) Please run Etrecheck and post its full report here. Use the "additional text" button and paste the report into the text box.

This will let us know about possible software issues.

From you above image

This looks like your conniption might be using a 5G mobile service provider connection or possible a Hotspot Connection from your mobile device

Use Instant Hotspot, Auto-Join Hotspot, or Family Sharing to connect to your Personal Hotspot
