Hello,

My laptop was connected through AT&T's DSL router and now it's connected to Newwave communications but the printer doesn't work wirelessly.
 
Are you saying you changed ISPs and got a new wireless router, and now your wireless printer isn't working? If so, it's likely the printer was setup w/ a static IP based on the old router using a different network (e.g., 192.168.1.x), but the new router uses a different network (e.g., 192.168.254.x). In that case, you'd need to update the printer’s wireless configuration to use an IP in the new network (e.g., 192.168.254.100).
