Product: MFP 179fwg

Hi all,
I am trying to connect my MFP 179fwg laserjet printer to my home network.
The problem I have is that our router password contains the caracter " which does not apear in the printers key board.
Is there a way to overcome this issue?
Thanks

Remove that character from the password or use WPS if supported by the router.

Thank you for your reply.

My printer doesn't have wireless connectivity. Can WPS be of assistance?

I also can't remove the " caracter as many applications that came with the house use it.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks,

You tried to get " by pressing # on the printer several times?
