I don't agree with that. I was working with balenaEtcher for the older Buster Lite version, and after switching to newer Rasp-Pi OSes, I began using their imager. It offers an option to turn on SSH and assign a hostname. Even when both were configured by the imager, my router couldn't locate the Rasp-Pi device. I believe this might be the issue. When everything is connected, the Ethernet/USB hub lights up green near the Ethernet port and red near the USB ports. I haven’t found any documentation for the hub I’m using.
You might want to test it separately—no hub required? Also, are those connections secured?
Verify the hub and Ethernet adapter on your computer
Test the hub and Ethernet dongle on your desktop
I can't test without the hub because the rasp-pi I bought lacks an integrated Ethernet connection. I believe the ports aren’t restricted, and access control allows wired connections. I’d need to verify that. Unfortunately, I can’t check directly. I don’t have a method to link the adapter to my computer. The device connects via micro-USB, which isn’t supported on my machine, and there are no compatible adapters available. Perhaps I could look for a rasp-pi with built-in Ethernet.

They said the product is no longer available, but I’ll look for alternatives. A colleague who’s an experienced network technician suggested there could be a problem with the PiZero not detecting the Ethernet hub, which isn’t uncommon. I’m unsure how to resolve that issue. I plan to check a Pi with a built-in Ethernet port and see if it works better.
