mac Wifi Connection Issues

Hi Guys, I have a 27 inch Mac Desktop (late 2012) that I've had since new and is up-to-date running macOS Catalina. Just in the last few days the Wifi Connection drops out randomly without explanation. I don't believe the issue is related to the Wifi as no other devices have been impacted and we don't usually run more than 2 devices at a time. I have restarted our computer, checked for updates etc. however the problem continues. Would love to know if anyone has found a fix for this or if you have any suggestions on things we might try :-) Thanks so much!
