Raspberry Pi OS • Headless Setup for Zero 2 W

Hi
I'm new to this and completely confused. I want to setup a Pi Zero 2 W to run the CamJam Edukit #3 Robot. As such as I was hoping to avoid having to buy adapters for keyboards and monitors. However, I am really stuck at the initial Pi setup stage.

I have started following one tutorial that said to use the Imager software and enter my wifi details etc in the custom setup. I did that and I was expecting to then be able to type that hostname into my PC browser and access the Pi, but not so. I get message @Site Can't be reacher'.

However, If I look up 'Connected Devices' on my router there is a new connected device. But

So I then found a tutorial dated 2023 that mentions SSH files and wpa_supplicant.conf files, I would have assumed Imager would have created those but I can't see them. Other sources seem to be suggesting this maybe an out of date way to do it?

So I'm feeling rather confused and lost.

If anyone can point me in the right direction I would be very grateful!
