Unable to connect to new wifi network on MacBook Pro I changed my wifi password and must have made a mistake - the network is not connected to wifi. I tried to delete it but it does not appear on the list of known networks. It is on the network list doing nothing at all. I tried to create a new wifi network, but lack the skill and any idea of what ip address necessary to do that. I could do the latter if I had some steps to follow. Hyperventilating. Help please.

The lock icon simply indicates that network is secured with a password.

If your Mac is connected then it has provided the correct password when it did.

There is nothing to fix here.
