You might try temporarily disabling the firewall on the Hp and see if you
can connect. Generally this kind of problem is related to a firewall setting
or a security setting. Your netgear router may have MAC list filtering
enabled, and the Hp might not be on the list. Generally there is a way of
resetting a wireless router back to factory defaults if you forget your
password, you might want to check your manual on that.
