iMac running Big Sur 11.5 will not connect to RAX50. All other devices connect with no issue: iPad, iPhone, Bose wi-Fi speakers, RainBird irrigation, etc. Cannot establish a Wi-Fi connection with the iMac.

Solved by resetting router to factory settings and redid set up process. All working now. Thanks.

Does it not see the ssid? Does it see it but not connect? Does it connect but say something like "connected, no internet"What exact error/issue do you see?

Yes, sees SSID, and indicates connected, only error is no Internet connection when attempting to browse. iMac works fine when connected via ethernet cable directly to cable modem bypassing RAX50.

What modem/gateway is the RAX connected to?
