uh HP office jet and I'm using Mesh system MX 5,500. Uh it's working fine what I've done is I've got a new computer. That's yes, that's correct.
01:00
Speaker 2
Got it, sir? Uh, sure, let me just confirm, is this the first time you are going to connect your printer to the Wi-Fi or it was working fine before? Mm, I see. So, just to double check, okay? Uh, your printer was connected before with a different computer. However, since you've upgraded to a different computer, now uh you cannot access the printer in your new computer, is that correct? Okay. Right, new computer and and unable to access the printer. Okay. Now, if
01:00
Speaker 1
Yes. Where would that show? Right now I think with my old computer, I had a name, it was called Elkridge. And then the second name was Elkridge 2. however I don't think that's the case now. Let me just double check.
02:00
Speaker 2
It's your computer already sir, connected to your Wi-Fi now? Okay, and just to double check, do you happen to have two Wi-Fi name showing or just one Wi-Fi? You can just try to go to the Wi-Fi settings of your computer and check your Wi-Fi name. Mm-hmm. Okay. I see.

Speaker 1
Oh, well, that's my problem, then. How do I get to that? duplicate, 2.4 because it wasn't there before. Just to be did just a second to get there. I'm in my system settings and network.
03:00
Speaker 2
Yes sir here's the thing: The reason why you might not be able to connect your printer to the computer or you're unable to print through Wi-Fi is because your new computer should be connected to the Wi-Fi 2.4: The label that has 2.4.
03:00
Speaker 1
okay. okay. I'm I'm at my network. it's not showing up like it did in uh windows 10. I've got Windows 11 and it's just doesn't handle it as nicely to me as not as friendly to me. I don't see the network. I have a wet a Wi-Fi ethernet is connected. It's just not showing the name of the system. Elkrgerich

Now it just shows that it's turned on. And that's okay. I know that it is. I'm just not finding it right at the moment. Where to go and my—this Windows 11 is new to me and I'm not finding what I—know that I'm looking for. I Right. Can you tell me how you get to networks, the available networks? I'm going to system settings. And network, and internet. And then it says Wi-Fi, connect, manage, meter. Okay.

Okay. So, you should connect through your computer to that Wi-Fi name. It's so the available ah available networks you weren't able to see it there. Um
