Wifi not working in NetworkManager despite it being connected

Sometimes this issue occurs and I still don't know what is causing it. It usually disappears if I take my computer to school and connect it to a different Wifi, but when at home, after some time my Wifi stops working despite NetworkManager displaying a connection.
Apologies for not posting logs here, I am currently on the phone, what is weird about this is that if I reconnect to the wifi, it works for about 2 seconds before becoming unusable again, even ping stops working. I only have wpa_supplicant and networkmanager running. I am afraid some processes are clashing but I cant be certain as I am a newbie. Rebooting doesnt seem to help. Does anyone have any idea on what could be happening?

Edit: disconnecting the interface and reconnecting doesnt do much either, the only way I can get wifi to work is by reconnecting to the wifi and it becomes usable for 2 seconds before going silent despite NetworkManager showing that it is connected

Re: Wifi not working in NetworkManager despite it being connected

Have you tried to reboot your WiFi at home? Just to know if it's trying to do something weird with DHCP (unless you're using a static IP address)

Re: Wifi not working in NetworkManager despite it being connected

I am afraid some processes are clashing but I cant be certain as I am a newbie.

find /etc/systemd -type l -exec test -f {} \; -print | awk -F'/' '{ printf ("%-40s | %s\n", $(NF-0), $(NF-1)) }' | sort -f

Please also post a complete system journal ("sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st") from an affected boot.
