I had 2 MacBook Pros. One 2024 and one 2019. The 2024 one would connect fine to the internet, the 2019 one would not.
After pasting in the airportd logs of both (into ChatGPT and Gemini) it found it was down to band switching (2.4GHz and 5GHz) through some really old error code.
This fixed a problem that had plagued me for >12 months. Really magical feeling it got in on first try.
One trick I've found is that I need to first give the clanker the real problem (in your case, the laptops not connecting) and then give it what I think is wrong. If I start at too low a level, I lose much of the advantage of the tool, which is part rubber ducky, part "did you think to try".
