Basic networking, and the ISO model, are the two things that I feel just require memorization first. Then you learn to use them. And both are "needed for every conceivable task" you will do in IT.

Then check your DHCP logs and see if your AP has an IP assigned to it.

Assuming Windows 10 1903 or newer
Open a command prompt
SSH IP of AP
creds are likely default at ubnt/ubnt
type help to get command for upgrade
get URL for firmware file from ui.com site
type upgrade command with URL - watch shit happen. -
This will likely help.
