I live in an apartment complex that just went to Community WiFi with Spectrum.  Previously I had my wireless printer hooked up and working fine.  Now I can't seem to connect the printer to my internet?  Has anyone else had this trouble?

Hi

I note the name Lenovo as a mis-spelling of HP.

WinKey + R  and type

cmd.exe

and then ipconfig -all

 

Usually you need to find the details of your connection...

Wireless LAN adapter WiFi:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Realtek RTL8723BE 802.11 bgn Wi-Fi Adapter
DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.11(Preferred)
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Lease Obtained. . . . . . . . . . : 10 November 2019 10:52:13
Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : 11 November 2019 10:52:21
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1
DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1

 

The underlined 4 should be written down.

Your printer would want to be in the same range as your PC (not necessarily mine),

and without any info on the printer I go no further.

 

If in doubt please ask.
