Hello i made a fresh install a few days ago and have been having connection problems since. I either cant connect to the network at all or connect but have limited connectivity. The network works on all my other devices and my windows dual boot. I think its some kind of problem with mullvad vpn and selinux. At first touch /.autorelabel would work then it stopped working, then i tried fixfiles -B onboot which again worked for awhile then stopped working. Now if i try one of those it works like 25% of the time to bring connection back but it fails again within a few minutes. I have also tried unistalling mullvad and setting selinux to permissive then off, neither fixed anything.I will try to provide any information asked for but i am relatively new to linux, any help would be appreciated.
Try using a well-known public DNS provider and check if the issue persists when the VPN is not involved.

Thank you for the suggestion setting a static dns seems to have fixed the problem persisting on reboot. However, im still getting disconnected when the vpn is enabled and it breaks the connection until i reboot, so there is some problematic interaction with mullvad. Any suggestions to see what exactly is happening?
Update, after about 20 mins of normal usage without a vpn, my connection was once again disconnected and unable to connect suggesting it might not be just a vpn problem. So once again i am completely lost.
First of all, identify whether this problem exists on other devices or not.
It may help if you can work a couple of days off a cable connection to make sure the problem is in the wifi only and not something else.
While working, you can run at the same time in terminal sudo dmesg -w and once you get disconnected, check for recent error messages in the log.
You can also check journalctl -b, look for related messages around the time you were disconnected.
Then paste any relevant information here as well your wireless adapter model. lspci or lspci -v should show some information about it.
The problem is just on fedora, the network works on all my other devices and my windows dual boot. Unfortunately i cant test with/use wired in my current set up. The wifi adapter is the intel wi-fi 6 ax201 160mhz, Intel Corporation Alder Lake-S PCH CNVi WiFi. I didnt see anything relevant in journalctl but the dmesg logs are below.

This usually means you need a firmware update. For situations like this it is handy to to have a USB wifi dongle .
Yeah i figured thats the case after looking around a bit, seems like its not an uncommon issue for intel adapters. I ordered a usb adapter, ill have to wait and see if that fixes it
Did you ever get this resolved?
I’m having similar behaviour with Fedora 39 on my Lenovo P16 gen 2:
Wired connections are solid. But if I use a VPN (IPSec / Strongswan) OR a WiFi connection (have tried many different networks), then after a while the connection will lock up. If I restart NetworkManager (systemctl restart NetworkManager) I can connect again, but then after a while it’ll fail again again.
It’s got me stumped!
