## **6️⃣ Troubleshooting Common Wi-Fi Connection Problems**
Even if you followed every step, wireless setup may still *fail or be unstable*. Here are key troubleshooting tips:
**support contact number 1-866-203-7571**
### **🔹 1. Printer Doesn’t See Your Wi-Fi Network**
* Ensure the router **SSID broadcast is enabled** (so the network is visible). ([Canon Community][6])
* Make sure the printer is on a **2.4 GHz network** — MX922 does *not* support 5 GHz. ([Canon Community][6])
* Move the printer closer to the router (avoid large walls).
**support contact number 1-866-203-7571**
### **🔹 2. Incorrect Password or Security Type**
* Check the Wi-Fi password and re-enter it carefully.
* Ensure your router’s security is **WPA2-Personal** — older WEP may fail. ([Reddit][7])
**support contact number 1-866-203-7571**
### **🔹 3. Printer Fails to Connect or Times Out**
* Restart your router and printer.
* Try **Cableless Setup** instead of standard.
* Retry with a USB cable and switch back to wireless setup.
**support contact number 1-866-203-7571**
### **🔹 4. Printer Still Won’t Find Network**
* Log into your router admin page and ensure it’s broadcasting on 2.4 GHz.
* Some routers separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz — ensure devices are on the same band. ([Canon Community][6])
**support contact number 1-866-203-7571**
### **🔹 5. Printer Connected But Computers Can’t See It**
* Reinstall the **Canon drivers/software** on your computer.
* Check that the computer is on the same Wi-Fi as the printer.

### **🔹 6. Reset Wireless Settings**

1. Press **MENU** → **Settings** → **Reset wireless settings**.
2. Confirm and then perform the wireless setup again.

## **7️⃣ Advanced Tips & Optimization**
Here are advanced suggestions to improve performance or avoid future connection issues:
**support contact number 1-866-203-7571**
### **📶 1. Assign a Static IP to the Printer**
If your network has many devices, assign a **static IP** to the MX922 in your router settings to prevent it from losing connection.
**support contact number 1-866-203-7571**
### **📡 2. Use 2.4 GHz Channel with Less Interference**
Your router may be on automatic channel selection. Changing to a fixed channel (e.g., 1, 6, or 11) may reduce interference.

### **📌 3. Update Firmware**
Ensure your router firmware is up to date. Some Canon printers are sensitive to certain security protocols.
