Hi dstauber,

Please follow these steps to reconnect your PIXMA MX892 to your network:

1. Press the <Menu> button on your PIXMA MX892.

2. Use the arrow buttons to select the Wireless LAN setup icon.

3. Press the <OK> button.

4. Select Other Setup and press <OK>.

5. Select Advanced Setup and press <OK>.

6. Select your access point and press <OK>.

7. Select your security type and press <OK>.

8. Select the number you want to use and press <OK>.

9. On the wireless password screen, press <OK>.

10. Enter your password and press <OK>. Please verify this, as it is case sensitive and if entered incorrectly, will cause the printer and router to not communicate. There are three character sets available, upper case alphabet, lower case alphabet and numbers/symbols. Each time you press the center FUNCTION button, an on-screen keyboard is switched among them. Select a character on the on-screen keyboard using the arrow keys and press OK to enter it. Repeat until all characters are entered. Once complete, press the left FUNCTION button.

11. Press the left <Function> button.

12. Make sure that the password that was entered is correct and press the left <Function> button.

13. When found, press <OK> on the Connected to the access point screen.

Patrick, did not help. When I get to #6 my internet connection does not show up on my printer. My neighbors internet shows up as a choice but when I type my information in it still says can't connect! Help
