I just recently had this issue last week. I didn't change anything. Same MacOS same dropbox...I didn't upgrade or do anything different. This seems like a Dropbox issue.

 

MacOS X - Monterey - 12.7.2

Dropbox Version - V194.4.6267

 

Every time I start my computer, I get the "Reconnecting to the Internet. This may take a moment"

 

Again, I didn't upgrade anything in the last few weeks or months.
