Ctrl+SHIFT+F3 at the same time
Otherwise call the ASUS Hotline or send it back.
Connect automatically is wrong because it is not configured
You can also check the Router settings
There's an alternate method to continue:

Or you create a "HOTSPOT" on a mobile phone temporarily.

Might be wrong here but I think this laptop is one of those with Windows S-mode and an eMMC drive? If so CMD won't be available.
Personally, and just my humble opinion, I would send it back for a refund - but that's just me.
First, thank you all for your help and goodwill. I did what I had to do on the first place - I've googled "how to force restart on Asus laptop". the answer was to press the power button for 10 seconds. I felt such a fool! I did just that and indeed it started the setup process from the beginning, this time to full completion. so far, so good! ah, and the OS is WIN11.
Once again, thank you all.
Great.. lucky this time!
