MG3670 connect via wireless

[cheng]

My old MG3670 died so i purchased a new MG3670. I cannot complete setup for wireless via PC (windows 11) as it keeps prompting cannot find my printer. No issues to connect via USB connection. I have tried setup via mobile and it has the same issues. I does not have the issues for my previous MG3670

It looks like the MG3670 is not sold in the USA, I found Canon support India, but the wifi instructions are quite vague, they may offer some help, hopefully it will be enough:

Greetings,

It's good that you put the printer into wireless setup mode. This is an important step. 

Please confirm your network configuration.  The printer requires a 2.4 GHz broadcast that uses WPA2 encryption.  Please note, the printer does not have a 5ghz radio.  

If you're using a dual or tri-band router, It might be helpful to create a dedicated 2.4 GHz broadcast.  You can also try temporarily disabling any bands the printer cannot connect to and then re-enable them once a successful connection is made. 

The printer requires WPA2 encryption. If your router is using WPA3, the printer cannot connect.  Ensure WPA2 is configured for the 2.4 GHz broadcast.  Some routers also allow you to configure WPA3/WPA2 combo to ensure backwards compatibility.
