Are there to many networks and the Goodcom GT6000GW isn't able to scroll to see more? 

Potential solution? Take the device somewhere with less signals, setup your phone hotspot with the same ssid/password as the router, connect it to that. Once its connected and setup. simply shut off the hotspot. Bring the printer back to where the primary router is and see if it connects. it should auto reconnect then.

    It does not show up at all even though it has the best signal out of 3 available networks when I scan using phone or laptop.
