Noticed he was not in this weekend's streams (at least so far, I haven't gotten to prime time yet but you'd think he would have been there for part of the day already if he was there at all).

Hopefully he just had the day off rather than being gone? I rather enjoy his commentary.

My main router is this one amazon.com/dp/B08H8ZLKKK

For a while now, occasionally when we would lose power in the whole house (like from a bad storm) the P1S would have difficulty seeing wifi, and I would do a factory reset to get it going again. But the setup process from factory reset was never smooth - I'd have to try it multiple times but eventually it would get it.

I recently went on a trip for several days so I turned off the printer. When I came back, printer couldn't see wifi again. I tried for ~2 hours with no luck.

Finally I got the idea to try my backup router, which I believe is this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00R2AZLD2 and it can see the wifi on the first try. So apparently this whole time it's been some sort of incompatibility with the router?

I've tried several things now, such as turning on a guest or IoT network. Sometimes the printer can see those, but even then, it can't actually connect. For the time being I'm using the backup router.

Google suggests turning off MU-MIMO but I don't see a setting for that.

I already have the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz split/separated/not meshed.

Any ideas for anything else I can try?
