, I can not connect my hp printer to my sky router

[PollyDave]

Hi there - I've recently upgraded my Sky broadband router. My HPEnvy series 5530 can see the router but won't connect when the password is added. 

I've done a network reset. I've tried using the WPS button on the side of the router. I've pulled out the power cable. Now at a complete loss as to what to try next. Could you please help?

Thank you in advance

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

Is your new router dual band?

This printer only connects to 2.4GHz.

Ensure the router is broadcasting on both frequencies.

Create a separate SSID named network for each band / frequency.

Connect the printer to the SSID named network for the 2.4GHz.
