PC very suddenly cannot see any wifi options availavble

Today I was right in the middle of gaming and the game suddenly lost connection and I was booted. I checked to see what was wrong with the wifi and I couldn't connect or even see any other options to connect to. It's not a wifi issue because the wifi works with every other device I have. I bought this pc just 2 weeks ago and it's been fine since. This is a Windows 11 Home

I had my my mom look at it since she has tech experience from 14 years ago. This is all she did:

-turned it off and back on + reset multiple times

-Computer is not on airplane mode

-Plugged an ethernet cord and computer works with that

-Checked that the wireless card was enabled

-Checked WLAN AutoConfig is set to Automatic and the service is running

-Preformed a Network reset

-Uninstalled the wireless drivers and restarted. all came back fine

-Flushed the DNS

-In Network adapters she removed the wireless and all the WAN that were there. Restarted and all came back fine

-Tried to update drivers but it didn't seem to need it

-Checked that all updates were current while on the ethernet cord and they are

-Removed and re attached the external antennas

-checked task manager for anything suspicious

None of this worked. It still cannot even see any wifi options more or less connect. Keeping the ethernet cord isn't really an option since the router is halfway across the house and we barely stretched the cord long enough to plug it in. The router does not even see the computer anymore so idk.

Any suggestions?
