You are welcome.

Getting this to Work:

A. Restore your Mac:

Did you ever create a Time Machine Backup of your Mac prior to this issue, when it was working? If so, create a Time Machine Backup, and then restore form the prior one. Use Migration Assist to import items to the new macOS you've recovered from. This is a pure example of how and what to backup your Mac, prior to making any major changes to in, including update installs, and upgrading.

B. Install Drivers:

See if you need to install any drivers to get this to work.

C. Delete All VPNs:

Delete ALL VPNs that you have installed, as data transfer can be manipulated.

D. Single-Out this User:

What occurs when you create a new Administrator user? See if you get the same error. If not, then it is a misconfiguration with your current user. If so, then it is an error within the entire macOS.

E. Single-Out this Device:

What occurs when you try performing the on another device, particularly a different Mac with Tahoe installed? If an issue, then it maybe an error with the disk drive itself --perhaps incompatibly.
