connecting printer to wifi

[Geanine1972]

I have a hp deskjet 2540 printer I had it connected to wifi before. I changed my modem and now I cant get it to connect USB connection is not an option as I have tried this 5 times and for some reason it doesn't recognize my wifi. I tried the way the expert on here said and when I clicked the wireless link he provided it says connect a USB cable. iv tried other methods as well and nothing works. my cd rom is currently broken so that's not an option either. really do not want to purchase a new printer for the little bit I print. PLEASE HELP ME  thank you in advance

@Geanine1972, Welcome to HP Support Community!

To be able to assist you better, I'd like to know the following-

• Is your router dual-band enabled i.e., both 2.4GHz and 5GHz?
• What is the distance between the router and the printer?
• Is there any error message on the printer or the computer?

Meanwhile, refer to the document HP Printers - No Connection after Router or Wi-Fi Settings Change for help. Also, use the guided troubleshooter Troubleshooting | Wireless Printing Center for instruction to isolate and resolve the issue.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
