   I was running Bullseye when the wifi started to fail.   
   AFAICT there was something about wps being deprecated and replaced with   
   nm. But the confs were not converted. Other reasons have also been   
   given. I wasn't amused to have to pull 21 SD cards and re-flash them   
   especially as quite a few require ladders and a team of 3 guys to do it   
   under current H&S rules.   
      
   So I'm sticking with and old, probably unsupported, o/s that just works.   
      
   Reminds me of an old engineering saying.   
   "If it's not broke, don't fix it" :-)

   It causes me a great deal of regret and remorse   
   that so many people are unable to understand what I write.
