HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 5525 e-All-in-One
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hi everyone!

I have an HP Deskjet 5525 printer and I'm have the following issue. I can't connect to the printer via wifi from my laptop or / and PC. The printer succesfully connects to my local wifi network and the network diagnostics print pagge reports no problems whatsoever. However, the blue wifi connection light on my printer is never lit. The problem started suddenly with no apparent reason.

I've tried the following steps with no success:

1. Unplug the printer for a long period, reconnect it with no success.

2. Changed automatic IP serving to static, again with no success.

2. Perform a Network settings reset on the printer.

3. Restore printer defaults

 

The printer is connected to the same 2.4 GHZ SSID as any of all my local devices.

P.S The problem is seems to have no connection with any other devices such as laptop or mobile, as the problem persists on any device regardless of Operating system.

 

Any help is appreciated

Thank you @Mans but although I followed all the steps mentioned, the problem persists. The printer although it seems to be connected just fine to the router I see no blue light lit. The printer has full access on the Internet and I can see it through my router's interface, however I can't communicate with the printer from any of my devices using Wifi. The printer works fine with the USB connected.
