Same question. I just exchanged my gray Nokia gateway for the Sagemcom. My Canon MG3500 printer connected to the Nokia, but I cannot get it to connect to this new gateway. (Everything's else connected easily: home security system, fire stick, TVision hub, iPad, Samsung S20, and two Samsung tablets.) I've tried going into the home Internet app and creating a second network just for the printer, and it looked like the network was established, but it disappeared. Now when I look at my gateway, only 3 devices are connected to the original network. Help?
Same here. I cannot connect my Canon MG3620 wireless printer to my 5G gateway. Please advise as to a resolution. Thanks!!
Some devices can’t connect to the gateway’s default network. You want to leave this network alone and ADD a second network with the + sign at the bottom of the Network tab in the T-Mobile Internet app. For this new network, set the band to 2.4 GHz and set the WPA version to WPA/WPA2. Try connecting your printer to this second network. Use the default network for your other devices, as much as possible.
Here are the T-Mobile support instructions for how to add the second network with the app.

*moved the printer to the same room as the gateway
*uninstalled my Canon Print app and did a fresh re-install of it so that I could set things up from scratch.
Thank you for the help. I’m back up and running. (Printing. Whatever).
