It is normally set in the way that you can use all the Wi-Fi channels. However, when the channels that you are
using are restricted, the Wi-Fi channels do not match.
See the instruction manual provided with your computer and check the Wi-Fi channel number available for
your computer.

Make sure channel set on wireless router is a usable channel as confirmed in
the previous check.
If it is not, change the channel set on the wireless router.

If your security software's firewall is on, a message may appear warning you that Canon software is attempting

If you are using any programs that switch between network environments, check their settings. Some
programs use a firewall by default.
