rpi zero 2 w randomly won't connect to Wi-Fi. (lemmy.world)

I'm running octopi on an rpi zero 2 w it had been working flawlessly for weeks until I unplugged it to move the printer. Now it won't connect to Wi-Fi sometimes. If I connect a monitor it will connect. If I connect the monitor after booting it has no network IP address just the 127... Local address. I've gotten it to connect one time without a monitor but it was in the wrong location. I thought it might be proximity related, and it still could be, but that doesn't explain why it doesn't always connect near my Wi-Fi access point where it was working before. I've tried multiple other power supplies and with the printer both turned on and disconnected.

How is it configured?

It's been years, but when the same thing happened on my pi I switched to wicd and had no more issues.

I'll have to check and see. I just used the official rpi installer and input my ssid and PW.
