Migration Assistant Failure

Whenever I turn migration assistant on for my Mac, the wifi symbol goes gray. Is this the wifi turning off??? How do I correct this so I can get my files from my old windows laptop?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.2

Move your data from a Windows PC to your Mac



WiFi is the last way you want to try and move data between machines when you up grade, a cable connection will be much faster, compared to days...
