If the network shown is not yours (for instance, if you connected to a neighbor's or guest
network), you must reconnect to your own network to scan.
If the network signal strength is weak, move the computer and printer closer to the
router, position the devices away from large metal objects such as bookcases, and move
away from devices that emit radio signals such as microwaves and cordless phones.
If the network status is not connected, confirm that your network is working correctly,
and then check the status again. Make sure a check mark displays next to the network
name.
If an Airplane icon displays, click the icon, slide the Airplane mode slider to Off, and then
connect to your wireless network.
