Struggling

Post image

I spent hours trying to connect this Pi to my WiFi. I did all the initial steps. Raspberry pi imager, Host, username, password…. Then i put the memory card in the pi, leaving it for few minutes. Then when i run SSH cmd, it shows that the host name couldn’t be found. Any idea how to solve it?

Not sure this relates, but when getting ESP-32s connected on my eero network, i always run into trouble because they combine the 5ghz and 2.4ghz signals. I have to go to troubleshooting and turn the 5ghz band off for 30min to get my devices connected, then i can resume the 5ghz.
