Hi @jtdimsdale, 

The Base Station has a few network requirements in order to connect to Wi-Fi successfully. It requires:

  • A network that broadcasts at 2.4GHz
  • Your SSID (Wi-Fi network name) and password to be 31 characters or shorter
  • Your network to be configured to WPA2 or WPA2/3 Mixed Mode

Since your network already broadcasts at 2.4GHz, I would check the character count of your SSID and password and look at the configuration of the network to see if they comply with these requirements.
