Does the Ring Chime not work with SmartConnect or Wi-Fi 7?

Just purchased a Ring Chime and it's not finding my network at all. It keeps saying it needs to be 2.4 GHz, so I created an "IoT" network on my router that doesn't have Wi-Fi 7 turned on and doesn't have 5 GHz enabled. Yet it still can't find the network on the device.  I read about some other workarounds like not using the app's default "Setup" and going through the Chime setup in the camera itself. Still can't find anything.  However the Echo Show I bought found my network with no problem.  Restarted the router, backed up my router settings, set up my router from scratch with Wi-Fi 7 for my other devices and it still can't find it. Restored my previous settings and 100% of my devices reconnected to my router, yet the Chime still won't find it.  I thought it was a defective one, exchanged the Chime for a brand new one and still nothing on this second unit. My hunch now is that it just doesn't like my Wi-Fi router or SmartConnect or something I've set up.
