I mean, a fault in the power supply is conceivable but I'd put that as a very outlier possibility. If you have an Ender like me (and I think you said you did?) you can buy a buck regulator that will take the 24V off the power supply and convert it to 5V that you can then run into the Pi's USB-C, if you want. But I really don't think that's your problem: if the Pi didn't have enough power, it just wouldn't run, or you'd have funkier issues like intermittent boot problems, etc.

If possible, even temporarily, get an ethernet cable in there and try. I'd bet $5 that it'll kick right up.

Ok trying this again with full links...

I built a pi TV using an LED display in a display box using this power adapter for input

This allowed me the 12vdc and +2A required for the screen.

This "tv" is running LibreElec, and has been working fine in the two years since I built it.

Also I guess if the power supply I listed isn't supplying the amperage you need, you could probably go with a big one, but I guess the main point I was trying to get across is that is absolutely doable!
