Step-by-step Solution

  1. Reboot: Cycle power to both your router and the M6552NW.
  2. Relocate: Reduce distance between the printer and the router to rule out signal obstruction.
  3. Reconfigure: Use the printer menu to select your network and re-enter the password.
  4. Static IP: Consider configuring a static IP in settings to avoid DHCP conflicts.

Prevention and Maintenance

Keep your firmware updated for better security protocols. Place the printer away from devices like microwaves that might interfere with 2.4GHz signals.

When to call a technician

If resetting the network settings does not bring the Wi-Fi card back to life, internal component replacement is needed.
