Hi,

I tried connecting my printer to my wifi network. however it gives me a message that WPA Authentication method n my printer has been changed from default setting and this may cause problems while connecting to wireless network How do i correct it?

 

Also, i am not able to connect the printer to my laptop wirelessly. It keeps showing not connected to the network. How do i get support on this.

 

Thanks

Hi @GaurangM283FDW,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

I understand that you are facing issues with connectivity. I'd like to help!

 

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:


Do you get an error message when trying to connect to the Wi-Fi?
Are you connecting the printer to a 2.4Ghz network or 5Ghz network?


Is it a private (Home network) or a public Wi-Fi connection? Wi-Fi direct? Or Hotspot?
What device are you using the printer with a Windows computer, Mac, Android, or iPhone?


How is the printer connected to USB or Wireless? 
What is the status of the wireless light on the printer, steady or blinking?
Have you done any changes to your router network or software?

Meanwhile, follow the steps from the documents below and see how it goes.
