Steps to reproduce

AUTO_SETUP_ACCEPT_LICENSE=1
# Initial user and default software installation password
# - Sets “root” and “dietpi” user’s login passwords and is used by dietpi-software as default for software installs which require a password.
# - Once applied during first run setup, the password is removed from this file, encrypted and stored to a safer location to be used by dietpi-software only.
# - WARN: The default SSH server Dropbear does not support passwords over 100 bytes. Certain special characters, and such with accents, take 2 bytes.
# - WARN: We cannot guarantee that all software options can handle special characters like $"|.

# Install APT packages automatically after first run setup.
# - Add as many APT package names as you wish, separated by space.
# - They will be installed after dietpi-software options and before the script defined via AUTO_SETUP_CUSTOM_SCRIPT_EXEC (see below) is executed.

# Dependency preferences
# - DietPi-Software installs all dependencies for selected software options automatically, which can include a webserver for web applications, and a web browser for desktop environments.
# - Especially for non-interactive first run installs (see AUTO_SETUP_AUTOMATED below), you may want to define which webserver and/or browser you want to have installed in such case. For interactive installs you will be always asked to pick one.
# - With below settings you can define your preference for non-interactive installs. However, it will only installed if any other selected software requires it, and an explicit webserver/browser selection overrides those settings:
# - Webserver preference: 0=Apache | -1=Nginx | -2=Lighttpd
AUTO_SETUP_WEB_SERVER_INDEX=0
# - Browser preference: 0=None | -1=Firefox | -2=Chromium
AUTO_SETUP_BROWSER_INDEX=-0

# - This will be effective on 2nd boot, after first run update and installs have been done.
# - Related software titles must be installed either on first run installs or via AUTO_SETUP_AUTOMATED=1 + AUTO_SETUP_INSTALL_SOFTWARE_ID (see below).
AUTO_SETUP_AUTOSTART_TARGET_INDEX=0
# Autologin user name
# - This user must exist before first run installs, otherwise it will be reverted to root.

# - Please change AUTO_SETUP_GLOBAL_PASSWORD when enabling this option!
AUTO_SETUP_AUTOMATED=0
# Software to automatically install
# - Requires AUTO_SETUP_AUTOMATED=1
# - List of available software IDs:-removed
# - Add as many software IDs as you wish, separated by space.
# - DietPi will automatically install all dependencies, like ALSA/X11 for desktops, a webserver for web applications etc.
# - E.g. the following (without the leading “#”) will install the LXDE desktop, the TigerVNC server and the Kodi media centre automatically on first boot:

Expected behaviour
- Headless Installation and instant access via ssh
Actual behaviour
- No connection to the hotspot wifi (checking the connected devices from my phone)
Extra details
- I am trying to install DietPi OS to my RaspberryPi Zero 2 W. I don’t have a monitor so I want to access my system via ssh using my mobile hotspot. I did some research however I couldn’t solve this issue. The solutions I have found in this site so far was almost 10 years old and wasn’t fruitful. I have this addon board however I believe it only works with ethernet. Also I had to remove all external links in the config while putting it in the forum because I am not allowed to give more than 2 links. They are all shown as -removed but they are present in my config.
