Wireless printer setup
« on: October 18, 2009, 03:51:32 PM »

Trying to setup a HP 6980xi with no success. It was a piece of cake to setup with a Belkin router I had previously. I can get it to work via the share port but I would like to attach a external hard drive to that.

TIA

Dave

mayhaps the routers use different LAN IP schemes....  such as 192.168.0.1  VS  192.168.1.1   ??

So, I figured out it was an issue with the printer. I needed to clear out the old IP address, once I did that I had no trouble getting the router to recognize the printer.
So all is good.
