Trouble connecting nRF24L01 wireless module

Hello, I know this is a common question on the forum but I do not know what is going wrong. I have one transmitter and one receiver. All, I believe, are connected correctly. However, there is no blinking on the transceivers, I don't know if this is supposed to happen or not because I year ago I did the same project and I have a faint remembrance that they blinked.
Here is the code:
transmitter:

//Include Libraries
#include <SPI.h>
#include <nRF24L01.h>
#include <RF24.h>

//create an RF24 object
RF24 radio(9, 8);  // CE, CSN

//address through which two modules communicate.
const byte address[6] = "00001";

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  radio.begin();
  
  //set the address
  radio.openWritingPipe(address);

  radio.setPALevel (RF24_PA_MIN);

  //Set module as transmitter
  radio.stopListening();
}
void loop()
{
  //Send message to receiver
  const char text[] = "Hello World";

//Check Section
  Serial.print("hello2 ");
  Serial.print("    -");

//Sends the information to the Receiver
  radio.write(&text, sizeof(text));

//Checks what was sent to the reciever
  int check = radio.write(&text, sizeof(text));

  Serial.print(check);
  Serial.print("-    ");
  Serial.print("hello ");

  if (!check){
    Serial.println("Not working 2");
  }
  delay(1000);
}

Receiver:

`//Include Libraries
#include <SPI.h>
#include <nRF24L01.h>
#include <RF24.h>

//create an RF24 object
RF24 radio(9, 8);  // CE, CSN

//address through which two modules communicate.
const byte address[6] = "00001";

void setup()
{
  while (!Serial);
    Serial.begin(9600);
  
  radio.begin();
  
  //set the address
  radio.openReadingPipe(0, address);

  radio.setPALevel(RF24_PA_MIN);
  
  //Set module as receiver
  //radio.startListening(); // this is moved to the void loop() section 
}

void loop()
{
  radio.startListening();
  //Read the data if available in buffer
  if (radio.available())
  {
    char text[32] = {0};
    radio.read(&text, sizeof(text));
    Serial.println(text);
  }
  else{
    Serial.println("Not working 1");
    delay(1000);
  }
  delay(1000);
}

What boards are you using?
How are they attached? Can you draw a wiring diagram (Fritzing is fine)?

A bit late here so just a quick check.

These modules are power hungry, place a 470uF capacitor near/across the power inputs of each unit.

Edit
See this tutorial:

I never did that on mine, and had no issues whatsoever. The real issue I found was using the right pins for the right board. Mine were on a Nano, Uno, and a Mega R2.
