Hi Jennifer,

 

You asked this question back on the 14th and Ronni suggested this site:

 

https://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/Modems-Hardware/Canon-printer-not-wirelessly-connecting-to-new-TELSTRA-router/td-p/541786

 

which shows quite a few people having similar problems and a couple of 
solutions that worked for some:

 

Solution 1)

I just got connected today with nbn and having same issue connecting to the 
printer. Then i worked out what i was doing wrong,. Try the following if you 
havent yet.

 

Go to wlan setting on printer....look for where it says to connect access 
point. You then have to hold the "Pair" Button on front of the modem while you 
sel ok on the printer. Hold the "Pair Button to printer says all is connected.  
Hope this helps.

 

Solution 2)

had the same problem with my canon printer.

Here's what I did.

On the printer I scrolled through and clicked on WLAN

then wireless Lan setup ok

then red stop button for other setup option

then other setup ok

then Advanced set up ok

I was then able to select my Telstra access point ok

then the security settings there was only one setting in white letters so I 
scrolled down to that ok

then I put in the password that was on my new gateway and then ok and then the 
problem was solved.

I can print and scan to my heart's content.

sorry this is not very technical but if you follow the steps it will work and 
you don't have to reinstall your rpinter.

 

 

I’m not sure if you missed Ronni’s suggestion or if you have already tried all 
these with no success?

 

HTH

 

 

Cheers

 

 

Neil

Subject: Printer to NBN router

 

Hello Everyone.  Last week NBN was connected and I had no trouble connecting my 
Mac desktop, iPad and iPhone.  However, despite YouTube tutorials and various 
suggestions on Google, I have not been able to connect my Canon T8060 printer 
to the router which was supplied. 

Can anyone help, please and if so, what further information do I need to give.

 

Regards, 

Jennifer Lefroy
