Laptop has a weak connection to WiFi

Hello,

My Alienware laptop does have a strong connection to the WiFi.  All drivers on the PC are up to date.  I've also tried disconnecting/reconnecting.  I don't seem to have a problem with other devices.  I know a possible fix is moving the laptop to a different band/channel, but it doesn't appear I have that option.  Thank you in advance!

How far is your laptop from the nest wifi point ?  Does the weak signal happen on any other networks ?  There is a ton you have to look at here.

I have a mesh system with a WiFi Point on every floor.  When I noticed this issue, I was only 6 feet from one of the WiFi points.  I don't have this issue with other devices.  For some reason, the system is not prioritizing my laptops in terms of signal strength
