NMCLI connection only works with 1 wifi adapter

I have 2 wifi adapters on my odroid, wlan0 and wlan1, I connected to my wifi using nmcli with wlan1 successfully, but would like to be able to connect with wlan0 instead. However it seems no matter what I do (both removing the connection and deleting it from the network manager) nmcli will only allow the first adapter (wlan1) to connect to the connection. When I try the same command but replacing wlan1 with wlan0 nmcli d wifi connect --ask ifname wlan0 it gives me this Error: Connection activation failed: (7) Secrets were required, but not provided. but running the same command using wlan1 connects no issue. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Also these are 2 identical adapters, both confirmed working before, just cant 'swap' them on my wifi for some reason. Extra info: Using odroid c4 with Armbian 22.11
