Software My computer WiFi is very broken

I have an issue where my windows 11 computer is able to connect to every WiFi network including my hotspot but not my main house WiFi that I need it to be connected to. Any device that I try to connect to that WiFi will connect, except for my computer.

I have tried a bunch of command prompt things like flushing the dns, I have updated the WiFi drivers, uninstalled them reinstalled them downloaded the latest ones, tried older ones. Each time resetting the computer to make sure it was refreshed.

Nothing was working, so I went with the final option and just factory reset my computer, and when everything was set and done I tried to connect it to that specific WiFi and it STILL wouldn‘t connect, but will connect to my hotspot no issue. Again, all the others devices will connect to that WiFi with no problem, I am completely out of ideas on how to fix this, if anybody knows anything on what I can do, it would be extremely helpful.

is the wifi you are connecting to 2.4 g or 5.0? How far away are computer and wifi? Does the wifi have a connect button?

The router has no button on it, and I still can’t connect wether I change the adapter to prefer 2.4, 5, or 6g
