Deskjet 3632
Chrome OS

I'm using an LG chrome desktop and trying to print with an HP DeskJet 3632.  I've set up e-printing and cloud printing after hours and hours of troubleshooting.  Then, I had to get a new modem because mine stopped working.  Ever since I got the new modem, I can't get the printer to connect to the wireless network.  I can't find any help online because everything is directed to a mac ios or windows operating system.  The wireless light is flashing nonstop, and the wireless connectivity bars are just cycling repeatedly with a (!) beside them.  I've printed the info sheets and they say the printer is offline.  Cloud print says it's offline.  It does not show up when I try to print from my iphone.  Please help me figure out how to connect this printer to the wireless network.

Hi,

Turn on WiFi Direct for the printer and connect to its WiFi Direct network:

On the printer control panel, touch the HP wireless direct button () so it lits.

 

On your Chromebook connect to HP-Print-xx-[your printer model name] or HP-Direct-xx-[your printer model name] 

The default password is 12345678.

 

From Chrome browse to http://192.168.223.1

 

Open the Wireless tab and select Wireless Setup Wizard, follow the steps on screen to connect the printer to your new network, the blue wireless light will solid lit once connected.

 

Be sure to reconnect your Chromebook back to your home network, then install and use HP Print for Chrome to print:

When I went to http://192.168.223.1 it gave me a privacy error:

Your connection is not private

It would not let me go any further, so I'm stuck.

Ok, I was able to proceed even though it was unsecure and warned me.  Then, it just has a blue progress bar go across the page and it says, "Connecting to the wireless network.  This may take several minutes."  After nearly an hour, nothing has happened.  I started over and tried multiple times with the same result.  Please help.  I'm about to just give up and return this printer.
