Windows 10: How to fix my computer's ability to connect to wifi?

My computer Windows 11, Dell laptop has stopped connecting to my wifi. Any time I restart my computer it connects to it for a moment, but then seems to automatically disconnect. When I try to open the wifi settings through the task bar or by going through the settings, it either doesn't show up or won't load. Is there anyway I can fix this? All my other devices connect to my router just fine so it isn't the problem.
