• C4780 Wireless - Apple Airport/TimeCapsule will not connect to wifi

  I just bought a HP C4780 Wireless printer.   Installation via the USB port on my MacBook Pro OSX10.6 works very well.

  BUT when I try to set up a wireless connection, only connected via the USB port while it fails during the installation process.  Setup program sees my network wirelessly between a couple of neighbors networks... mine is the strongest.  Yet when I hit the "continue" button to connect, I get a message... "" Network unavailable selected Wi - Fi network is not within reach of the unit.

  My network has encryption - WPA_PSK works perfectly.  During the wireless installation, I got the word of network gateway ready to kick it, but do not get to the screen under the "Network Configuration" screen which is the 'Security settings' screen that would allow me to enter the password. This problem occurred on two Apple laptops on my network.

  When I select another neighbor (public network), it works fine.

  I called the Support technique Apple and went on my Apple Network Setup and all seems OK.  I'm at a loss as the change, etc.  I downloaded the installation and latest drivers from HP.  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Thanks Den

  I owe you a great great!

  I write this, the printer prints on our discussion logs!

  Thanks much for hanging in there for me!

• WAG320N wireless problems

  I am having major problems with my Linksys WAG320N. Hoping someone here can help as I am quite clueless when it comes to networking.

  Without changing the settings, the other day that my Macbook Pro could not connect and he kept saying 'timeout '. From that point my iPhone also refused to sign, although access to the internet on my MBP viaethernet was fine.

  I did a hard reset according to the instructions of this forum, and then re-configured with the installation CD. The router wireless light was turned on but my MBP did not see the network. Finally, I managed to connect after I restarted my laptop and enjoyed every 10 minutes without internet connectivity before wireless problem network come fall and now does not appear in my list of networks once again, even if the wireless light is still on.

  Ethernet connection still works, but not via the wireless.

  I restarted my laptop and the router and tried switching channels on the router, all to nothing done. Very confused and frustrated!

  Someone at - it suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help.

  What is the wireless settings you have set up on your router (SSID, channel and security mode)?

  Connect to your router configuration page and click on the Wireless tab and click on the "Advance Wireless Settings" sub-tab and under change 75 beacon interval, change the Fragmentation threshold to 2304, change the RTS threshold to 2304 and click on save settings...

  Now let's see if you can locate your wireless network and try to connect...

  Hello

  I recently got the c4780 all-in-one. It's great to work wireless with my win xp computer. However, I got an old laptop victory 2000, which I want to use for printing the aswell c4780 wireless.

  I know that HP is not officially compatible win 2000, but is it possible that I can make it work?

  Yes it is. Go to the Printers folder and select Add a printer. Select local printer and create a TCP\IP port to the IP address of the printer. Now select the printer as the HP Deskjet 990c driver, and you should be able to print.

• S10 - 3T wireless problem

  My rig to receive yesterday and fought wireless problems.  Thought, he was my network for some time and found if I close the 3 t of the network works fine.

  The 3 t at this point works well on the network but sometimes slow.  However any TIME that I try to download a file, it works as usual for a while then just dies.

  Stop downloading and it is surfing.  It seems also to kill or slow down the network to a crawl at the same time.

  I tried to update the drivers in Device Manager and it says they are the best already.

  Any thoughts?

  Thank you for your understanding.

  The ends of the ongoing saga I think.

  I went to Burger King this morning and connected to their hot spot and the thing that worked great - downloaded a large file on site.

  Lenovo, I called and they told me to uninstall the software Lenovo 5 ready.  I did and rebooted and it worked fine and still seems to work very well ;-)  They said that it causes conflicts.

  Worked on my unit anyway.  This happens on a platform of Asus here one year, their uninstalled software and it worked fine.

• Router C4780 wireless network belkin problem

  I have a C4780 which worked well for several years with at least 2 previous routers. I have a Belkin AC1800DB have changed recently and now unable to connect to the router (laptops are connected wirelessly to Belkin WPA2 network without problem).

  When I run a network of C4780 test report it says local networks are detected (including Belkin WPA2) but shoes FAIL against network name SSID found. Similarly the wireless Assistant from the installation disc, the list of available SSIDS for the connection is empty. C4780 both Belkin have WPS, but this does not work in mode button or Pin.

  Because the problem is to find the SSID for all networks I do not think that his associate Belkin (just strange that the problem occurs at the moment I change the router).  But as the C4780 connected perfectly to my previous router, that I do not understand why I now this problem of wireless network connection.

  Any advice much appreciated.

  Try this.   Configure the router to a wireless channel fixed as 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto '.   'Mixed' mode, try now.

• Is it possible to connect the HP Photosmart C4780 Wireless printer without USB cable?

  Hello

  My family and I recently moved and while moving, something inevitably get lost or left for account.  I am fighting to get this printer and will so I don't have to bother people at the front desk at school to print my documents for me.  I have lost/misplaced both the HP Photosmart C4780 printer software disk and the USB cable.  I have no idea where these things are and have not found them within two months, we've been in the new House.

  I solved the issue of the loss of the installation disk by downloading it from the HP site.  My problem is now getting beyond the USB connection and get the currently installed software.  Because I run on a MacBook Pro, it always tells me that I need the USB key to continue the installation.  I'm on a Verizon Wireless router, and I even tried to find the printer on my wireless network with no luck.

  Help, please!

  Thank you.

  It's the type of cable you will need (ignore the color of the cable, the ends are the important part).

  

  Have a new router is not a problem, but remember the SSID and password wireless exactly, otherwise it will not work (if you decide to try Method 1). It's a bit like "trick" your printer into thinking that your new router is your old a long enough to configure the network settings for the new (desired).

• Photosmart C4780 wireless Mac connection failure

  I, like some others I've seen messages on, will have exactly the same problem with my HP Photosmart C4780 of wireless connection to my MacBook.  I just bought this printer a couple of days with a new iMac (which I have not yet unpacked, yet).  I decided to see if I could go ahead and get the printer works with my Macbook.  Here is a breakdown of the specs, measures and tests.

  1 MacBook OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) running.

  2. software is installed.

  3. to set up a wireless connection, the "Device unavailable" error appears in a dialog box.  This is the same error that others have had.  He continues with... "The network configuration has been correctly transferred to the device.  However, to continue the configuration of the device in the network, your Mac must have access to the device... ».

  4. I can load the page HTTP for my router (a Qwest Actiontec M1000) and see the IP address of the printer.

  5. I can successfully ping the the IP address Mac printers.

  6. I cannot correctly load the HTTP page to the printer via the IP address and the view that it is different pages.  I can even change some of the settings, however, apparently never really complete updates.

  7. After talking with HP support for more than 90 minutes (after waiting on hold for nearly 45 minutes, not a joke), we arrived at the conclusion that the modem/router must be the cause of the problem.  So, I was told to contact Qwest to get help.  Furthermore, technical support had me through many of the same steps I've seen on other items (for example, reset the printing system, uninstalling and reinstalling the software, reset my router, etc.).

  8 next, before calling Qwest, I decided to see if I could get the printer runs on Windows.  Under WinXP SP2 on a platform completely separate (but), I was able to install the software correctly and successfully a wireless connection to the printer.  I rebooted the machine Windows several times and disconnected the power to the printer just to make the connection is when it was re-powered and rebooted.  And Yes, everything works perfectly on the Windows machine.  It tells me there is nothing wrong with the router (with a possible exception, which I will speak in a moment).

  9. given that the installation worked in the windows box, I decided to call HP.  This time I isn't that hold it for about 20 min.  I told them what the results were in the Windows world, and we proceeded to work on this issue with the Mac for about an hour.  We have made some of the same things, as for the first phone call, in addition to a few other checks.  It simply seems that software on Mac just cannot see the printer, which means that the HP software will be unable to see it as well.  It's very weird because I can still ping and also set up its Web page (on the Mac and Windows machines).  Now technology seems to think that this is a problem with Mac OS because it certainly works with a different OS with the same router.  I'm leaning toward the same conclusion as well.

  10. now for the question of the possible router I mentioned earlier.  I saw in another post where someone says hello.  Something the Actiontec only modems no routing of packets used by Hello.  I have absolutely no idea what the Hello devil is.  I tried to do a little research on this and am still confused as to what it is and what it does.  However, if Hello is something specific to the Mac and has nothing to do with the router itself, then it seems to me that the router had no knowledge of Hello (and certainly would not care).  Therefore, the ability of routers delivers packages for different platforms should not be affected by this Hello thing.  However, this does not mean the packets are not getting lost once they arrive at the Mac because of Hello (again, not knowing what it is).  Now if that's the case, then it seems to me that the problem would be with the Mac (in conjunction with this thing Hello), not the router.

  11. other positions reported this same problem wireless with this same printer using OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).  If this is true, then when I finally unpack my new iMac, I expect to have the same problem... we'll see when I am near to it.  If he did not have this same problem, so maybe there is hope if I upgrade my MacBook to Snow Leopard.

  If anyone has any other light to this problem, please let me know what might be the underlying issue, and how can I fix this (if someone already has).  Thank you.

  Finally, problem solved!  Here is the solution, if someone else is facing a similar problem.

  Since I found the IP address of the printer on the Web page of my router, I went in "Print and Fax" system preferences.  From there, I clicked on the sign "+" to add a printer.  Nothing appears in the default tab.  So, I went to the IP tab.  From there, I selected the Protocol for the "HP Jetdirect - Socket".  In the address field, I entered the IP address of the printer.  After a few moments, the printer was found and the field "Print using" is automatically filled with the print driver.  I clicked on "Add", and low and here's the printer now appears in my list of printers.

  The second representative of HP I was working with me had to go through this same series of steps with one exception.  Never, we put the Protocol field.  He was left as default "Line Printer Daemon - LPD".  When this was done, nothing ever appeared.  So, I think that the trick was to change the field Protocol, as shown here.

  I hope this helps those who have a similar problem.  Good luck.

• Photosmart C4780 wireless set in place the question

  Hi all

  I tried to implement the Photosmart C4780 to print on a wireless network. I have a pc running Windows XP SP2. When I go through the process of configuring the network device it seems to pass a number of steps with no problems before you throw the following: "the printer attempted to join the network but does not receive any data. This may be caused by MAC address, filtering... "I checked the router settings, router is a Netgear Wgr614 and MAC address filtering is turned off.  I have a number of other devices connected to the network and all have very well connected without tinkering with the configuration of the router.
  When I run a wireless network test, she spends the first 5 criteria (Wirless on, working wireless, found network name, security, printer settings in line with the wireless router settings) before failing on the 6 criteria (filtering on).
  Any ideas...

  Have completed using the USB connection and which works very well but I would like to run without thread if poss.

  Thank you for your help. Neil

  It's fixed now, everything worked Ok once I changed the WEP authentication type router "Shared key" setting to "open system".

• The configuration of the new MacBook Pro and HP C4780 wireless connectivity helps

  The MacBook Pro OS 10.6.3 so the CD that was included in the box of C4780 is should not be used.  I need to configure settings wireless in the printer.  Can I connect the printer via USB and it prints.  All the information that I have seen and read States to use the "Printer Setup Utility" for this, but I can't seem to find it.  All required HP software is upposed to be on the MAC under 10.6.  I'm relatively new to a MAC and I tried to look around to find the utility but don't have happen what it is.  The only utilities that I can find under 'Printers and faxes' and 'Options' for the C4780 are a number of requests for test pages, ink, supplies and other levels.  Can someone point out exactly where I find the Setup utility?

  OK, I did everything above, and does not now print.  I even reset the printer IP to the IP of origin just to try again and also now works.  My printing problem may have had more to do with resetting the print subsystem and then redefine the printer for the Mac.

  In any case, I'm now moving forward with other installation problems.  Thanks for the help and suggestions.

• Powersave C4780 wireless?

  I have a new c4780 and Mac and PC on the same wireless network.

  When I try and print, or OS can find the printer - as if the wireless to the printer has timed out or something? Maybe a powersave? It is used about once a day.

  This is easily solved by simply turning the printer market once again, but it's a little frustrating.

  Someone knows what's the problem?

  Thank you

  OK, a couple of things come to mind.

  First of all, WEP isn't sure.  It can be broken by freeware in 10 minutes approximately.  Change it to WPA or WPA2 with a password strong character 13 +.

  Secondly, I understand that the printer has an IP address, we will define an (not variable) IP address for it.

  -Print a the front of the printer Network Setup Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
  -Enter the IP address in a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
  -Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
  -On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). If you know what it is, set an IP address outside this range but not exceeding 254 (the last number of the address). If you don't know it, enter the current IP address.
  -Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
  -Let the gateway and DNS white. Click on ' apply

  Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

  After that, you will have to redo 'Add printer' using the new IP address.

• Connectivity with printer Epson wireless problems.

  Epson printer indicates that the wi - fi connection is excellent. The connection to devices also indicates that the signal strength is excellent. However, when I go to print it tells me that there is no wireless printer! This happens with the iMac, iPad and iPhone. This just started happening about 2 weeks ago.

  See if it works... In system preferences > printers and Scanners choose your printer and remove it from the list, and then add it back

• Photosmart C4780 wireless installation under 10.6

  Well, I have a Photosmart C4780 printer, and I try to get connected to the network. I need to connect it wirelessly because that cable of three feet it came with just do not cut it.

  I have no idea how to connect it. I see nothing on the networks in the software of the printer, and the printer itself menus are cryptic and buggy.

  Any statement of Mac, I can find is for older versions using the real HP software. From what I understand, if I'm on Snow Leopard, I'll use drivers and the software I already have. The sole instructions of Snow Leopard I can find hidden only setting via the USB port.

  Help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

  Download the latest version of the software HP here

  Run the program and first have the USB cable connected to the printer, you will come to a point in the configuration where you will be asked if you want to configure the wireless printer.  Confirm the configuration wireless and just the follow through.  You will need to know your wireless network security settings and benefit that your Mac is on the wireless network that you want to use with the printer.  It's pretty simple.
