Product: HP LaserJet Pro MFP M28w Printer

My printer suddenly lost wifi connection; I don't know why; now the blue wifi light is blinking and I don't know how to re-install the wifi connection. I had a VPN running, not sure if it might have caused some problems. It's my home Wifi which works on all devices.

Blue Wifi light blinks. Did a factory reset by pressing the Wifi button 20 sec, printed the Config Report:

Wireless Network Config Status: Not Connected, Wireless:  On

Wi-fi Direct Setup status: Disabled

 

From my wifi network,  HP-Setup <af> M28 Laserjet is shown as without a lock - and I cannot connect to it.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

Issue resolved. I connected the computer with a usb cable to the printer.  I was able to connect back to 192.168.223.1 and made all the network settings etc. It works fine now.
