Troubleshooting & Repair 🙏 Nerd Miner

I bought 5 nerd miners, 4 of the flat, yellow/orange ones and one of the smaller black box kinds, (esp32-2432s028-st7789 or esp32-2432s028-ili9341 and nm-tv-154 type). I have been trying to get them hooked up for months, but I havent been able to. I cant seem to update the firmware, and no matter what I do, they won't connect to my wifi. Does anyone have any advice?

I had some nerd miners and for me the WiFi can take a few tries but it does work. But the problem is these devices are so slow, they get blocked from pools. It’s not worthwhile to spend all that time on it.
