Wireless printing ident is "Off Line".  Just installed TP-Link Deco Mesh WiFi Booster system.  My 8725 is still showing Netgear as the network while my new network has a different name, so guessing this is the problem.

I am unable to locate where I am supposed to insert the name of my new network.
