Disabled WiFi 6 and was able to get past initial setup, hope this data point helps anyone

The other comment linked a thread to seeking to be a common problem with routers and Merlin hardware, not sure if that helps or not but I’m thinking it’s mine

Thank you for the link, as it seems it is my router and the WiFi 6(160mhz?) problem most likely so I will try to get past that. Thank you very much
