Was gifted a few Raspberry Pi Zero’s recently and trying to set them up. Flashed the OS to the SD card and it boots, but for some reason for the left of me I can’t get it to connect to my WiFi network. It’s been the same on 2 of the 3. #RasberryPi

Yea, I tried to troubleshoot that that too. My FritzBox 6670 allowed me to split it and set different names but it still struggled and wouldn’t connect even with the lower band.
Yea, tried that but still wouldn’t connect. Also wondered if it was a WiFi band issue and split the name for 2.4 GHz from a same named 2.4/5 GHz with my FritzBox 6670 but it still refused to. For a while I thought I was cursed as the signal booster in the cellar fried the day I tried to set it up.

How your access point handles 5GHz vs. 2.4GHz selection may be the problem
Long ago, for other non-RasPi devices, I setup my AP to use different names for 2.4GHz & 5GHz WiFi
