How to fix wireless issues on my MacBook with Linksys Velop Pro 7?

Replaced AP with Linksys Velop Pro 7 in bridge mode, that's ok for first connecting it with my Macbook 12" (late 2017).


But after some time, i found it cannot connect to internet, even it shows connected. Sometimes it will just disconnect and not able to find the AP. What i can do is, turn off wireless at Macbook and then turn it on again. It will back online and problem loop again after some minutes.


I got Iphone 15 pro and ipad gen8 and ipad mini gen6, works without problem.


Is there anyone experience same thing or any solution to fix the problem?


Thanks for help.

If your macOS version is up to date (macOS 13.7.1 is the latest) then I'm out of ideas, other than to suggest using EtreCheck which could conceivably reveal something interesting. Instructions: How to use the Add Text Feature When Posting Large Amounts of Text, i.e. an Etrecheck Report - Apple Community


Otherwise contact Apple, here: Official Apple Support. Perhaps they will have some other suggestions.

I understand that Mac's wireless connection to that particular network is unreliable or intermittent.


Try this: open your Mac's System Preferences / Settings > Network, and choose the Wi-Fi interface at the left. Click the Advanced button. Under Known Networks, choose each network that appears in the list and then Remove From List.


That action keeps your Mac from attempting to connect to any other network any of your devices may have connected to in the past — an action that may be time-consuming or otherwise preventing reliable connections.


Then, reconnect to your Linksys network.
