Is there a way to disable Wifi 6 on M1 Macs? My office is 1 story, but sprawling. There is 1 WiFi 6 AP that's located in the opposite corner of the office. I head to that side of the office on occasion. When I do, my M1 Mac connects to the AP seamlessly. The problem is, with the range on WiFi 6, IT DOESN'T LET GO! So when I head back to my desk, I get the poorest connectivity (<50kbps where I get ~500mbps on average).

You have choices:
Set up different locations in the System Preferences > Network panel. 1) for the Wi-Fi 6 AP, and 2) Items 1 or 2 above as appropriate when back at your Desk. Should be as simple as clicking the location of your choice to reconfigure your network settings.
Not sure one can Disable the Wifi 6 connection.
One could work in the Network Setting and change the Network setting requiring a password to switch to the lower back at your station.
In Theory, the computer should automatically change to the Nearest and Strongest available connection.
