PIXMA MG5720 not working after firmware update

After doing the firmware update, now the printer will not connect to my phone or my laptop.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, unplugging/plugging back in, completely deleting the app and reinstalling, etc.  Nothing has worked.  It was all great for several years until that firmware update.  How do I fix this?  I NEED TO PRINT!!

Thanks for joining the conversation!

Thanks and have a great day!

So instead of giving me any kind of solution you tell me to wait for other customers to answer my question OR I should search your useless FAQs to get an answer. Got it. This is why this printer is going in the trash and I will NEVER buy another Canon product. Where the hell is customer support?  Apparently nonexistent. 

Hi,

You can try disabling the IPV6 setting in your printer by using the steps HERE

Too little too late. In the time between when I first asked for assistance and finally getting some sort of an answer, I have ditched that piece of junk and already ordered, had delivered, and installed a new printer. Thanks for nothing.
