MKR1000 Stuck

So I just got my kit this week and am trying to do the https://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/133030/iot-cloud-getting-started-c93255 and all I get on the monitor is:

Connected to "XXXXXX"
Arduino IoT Cloud Connection status: CONNECTING
Arduino IoT Cloud connecting ...
Arduino IoT Cloud Connection status: CONNECTED

And that is it. I have the latest firmware on my mkr1000 as I updated it this morning. Current WiFi Firmware: 19.6.1

I am totally lost as to why I can't get any further.

Are you switching the light property in your Arduino IoT Cloud dashboard?

Yes, doesn't matter what I do there. Nothing changes
