5 ghz Printers.

Roger+and+out — Tue, 10 Dec 2024 13:05:20 GMT

I've recently changed my sky Wi-Fi to a FUll FIBRE-100 and a 5 GHz hub, so my canon printer TS 8350 doesn't work ,unfortunately, won't connect to my phone or I pad.

So could anyone help with a good replacement printer using. 5ghz.

THANK YOU.

You dont need to replace the printer, just temporarily turn off the 5ghz WiFi in the router settings on the My Sky app

With a white Max Hub you may need to reduce the wireless security level from WPA3-T to WPA2-PSK using the Hub settings in the My Sky app.

WPA2-PSK is still considered entirely adequate (except by Apple) and at the moment a significant percentage of wireless devices don't support WPA3 anyway.
