Router: Airport Extreme 802.11 ac (a/b/g/n/ac)

PCs: Lenovo (1l, Toshiba (1)....Systems: windows 10 home 1909

Lenovo tablet with wondows 8.1

We tried

rebooting the computers,

turning off then turning on wifi (also did with airplane mode)

foegetting and readding the connection manually

reinstalling, updating the wireless driver

resetting network back to factory settings

turning off ipv 6

manually entered security keys and passphrases

flush dns/ reset ipconfig

on one computer.. reinstalled windows which is now on OS build 18363.900


the two PCs had initially last connection with updates pending. The tablet hadnt been turned on on several months so it didn't have updates.


still "can't connect to this network"

PCs however can connect to wifi phone hotspots and can connect to the router through ethernet cable.
