Ensure your iPhone or whatever you’re using with Home app is connecting to the new Wi-Fi network.


Then reset HomePod mini, and re-add it: Reset HomePod or HomePod mini - Apple Support

Most problems occur due to the wifi SSID and password changing with a new router. Devices that try to connect to wifi using the old values will likely fail.


With so many devices around the home now relying on wifi it is worth taking a relatively simple step when the wifi router is changed.


First make a note of the old router's SSID and password.


Go to the router settings in your browser (likely to be 192.168.0.0), enter the admin name and router password (should be part of the router documentation) and change the SSID and wifi password to that of the previous router.

Any way you could help figure out why my printer isn't working? Since I got new internet?

Whoever set up the new Wi-Fi network presumably picked a new network name and new password.


They probably just left it all set at the router / firewall / gateway box at its defaults too, and called it a day.


This means you’ll either need to reset the printer network settings, or manually configure the printer for the new network name and new password using the printer control panel.


How to do any of this reset and reconfiguration depends on the specific vendor and model printer itself.

and I changed my google password....

Unless this is a Google printer, your Google password is only relevent for continuing to allow Google to collect your personal data and metadata. Not for printers and printing.





Related: While you’re reconfiguring the printer network settings, check for new printer firmware, too.


Related: It’s usually also possible to set up your own Wi-Fi network name and password, and to then continue to use that same name and password again in the next Wi-Fi network, if (when?) the router / firewall / gateway box inevitably gets replaced. That’s a little more advanced, but it means ypu don;t have to reset everything again, just reconfigure the one box for your preferred network name, rather than everything else adapting to that box.

Often 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1, maybe 192.168.2.1 or 192.168.3.1, maybe something else, but usually not .0, and definitely not 192.168.0.0.


The first and last addresses (.0, .255) in a subnet can get tangled.


Look in Settings > Wi-Fi or System Settings > Network or whatever for your client, seeking the router address display.


Connect to that router IP address in your web browser, and see if a router web server responds.
