    New here. I know computer terminology. But I am not a networking person so easily confused with assumptions of common terms.

    I've been trying for hours to install a Mini1 Gen 3 and cannot get it to connect to home network. Hardware/system.

    Vodaphone Full Fibre Hub

    Split SSID to isolate a 2.4 MHz wifi network SSID 'SlowSpeedWiFi'

    Ths 2.4 network given an all-alphabetic password

    Lenovo mini desktop PC primary device ( but also Redmi Note 13 )

    Ethernet wire connected

    Process

    Powered up Mini 1

    AP blinks slowly as normal

    Pressed RESET button fpr 10+ seconds to make sure it was factory state


    Disconnect wired ethernet

    Set PC to 2.4 MHz 'SlowSpeedWiFi'

    Accessed SMini 1 on 192.168.33.1 on PC - Successful

    'Do you want to setup wifi..'

    Wi Fi 1 panel...

    3 tick boxes; Enable wifi, Manual SSID, Open Network [ NO indication of what these mean to a system idiot like myself. ]

    The 'Open Network' box is ticked as default

    The 2.4 Mhz wifi network is also displayed as a named connection default below tick boxes - this names the correct 2.4 Mhz SSID 'SlowSpeedWiFI'

    Below this is a tick box for Static IP - I leave this unticked.

    I select Manual SSID and remove 'Open Network ' and repeat the SSID 'SlowSpeedWiFi' and give password

    I 'Save ' and it says it is 'Successful'

    There are 2 other panels for Wi FI 2 and WiFi Roaming and I do not touch or save them.

    Result: Nothing.

    Tried switching PC back to 2.4 Mhz 'SlowSpeedWiFI' but Shelly not seen.


    Tearing hair out stage... Any help or pointer to link for detailed instructions would be appreciated. Many thanks.
