So I am unable to connect (whether via WPS or USB) my new MG3550 printer to my network.

 

The tool comes up with "cannot detect the printer on the network" and the Netwok Info I get is as follows:

So apparently the printer IS connected to my Wifi (LOLZER), but is not getting an IP? Has anyone encountered this issue? The WiFi is an Edimax BR-6475ND. Many thanks!

Turns out I had to upgrade the firmware on my Edimax AP, now it's all OK.
