Connecting to the internet

I cannot connect to the internet on my Macbook Air. The computer is connected to the network, and two other Macs in my house are on the same network and can connect to the internet. Just this one cannot. Catalina OS running on all computers (they're old,).


Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you

If your Mac doesn't connect to the Internet over Wi-Fi - Apple Support offers some suggestions, but start with the basics first: power down your router and (assuming it is a separate device) your cable modem. Unplug their power cords and wait a moment. Then, plug them in again and let them restart.


While you wait, you might as well restart your Macs.
