New UniHiker K10 no IP (wifi or usb)

I have a new UniHiker K10. The screen shows the expected startup screen with the 4 modes working fine but I cannot get I connected to my desktop.
I am using the supplied USB cable and plugging it in to a Linux system (Fedora 41). It shows up as a serial device (Bus 001 Device 004: ID 303a:1001 Espressif USB JTAG/serial debug unit). If I open up a serial connection I get a repeated error msg “W (325402) AFE_SR: ERROR! afe_feed_aec_init_false, rb_out slow!!!”. I also tried Thonny but the shell screen in Thonny shows this same error message.
The documentation seems to indicate that the USB connection should show up as an IP device (10.1.2.3) over this usb connection but no IP connection is made to the UniHiker. The documentation also seems to indicate that the K10 should also start an Wifi AP but I am not seeing any new Wifi network showing up. Does the IP connection work with K10's or is this only an M10 capability?
Anyone know why my serial connection is getting the error message and why I am not getting an IP connection?
