Connect a wireless printer anywhere, wired derivation convert, does not have radio, add WPA2 security.
Update- good because when the wireless radio failed to convert a wired Ethernet printer to wireless technology, or if you want your printer to support greater security WPA2 wireless.
Updated - connect to a hotel/motel/school dormitory may not work if the network uses Enterprise authentication requesting a user name and password on your computer.
This article will try to explain how to connect your wireless devices, including printers, to a wireless network when you are away from home. The problem when you're in a hotel, motel, room student or other areas is your computer connects fine, but your wireless printer, you have brought with you, has connection/security problems. Other people/wireless devices can find the printer on an open network, connect you to the printer and start printing without reason just because 'they can do. "
You'll need is a small wireless travel router. TP-LINK TL-WR702N Wireless N Nano router or other router of trip is all you need. The WR702N is available on eBay or Amazon for only $21.00, that's right, only $ 21.
This device does not support the authentication of company systems because it cannot meet any username and password prompts these system as your computer can. However, it will connect to a standard WPA SSID and your computer, but if you receive a browser for other questions page redirect, it won't work.
It's a small powerful travel router which built in 5 modes of operation (more than your home router can do):
- AP mode
- Client mode
- Repeater mode
- Router mode
- Bridge mode
The TP-WR702N information is found here:
http://www.TP-link.com/en/products/details/?model=TL-WR702N#over
To see the overview of applications see here first to understand:
http://www.TP-link.com/en/products/details/?model=TL-WR702N#app
I won't go into the details on how to configure these modes in the TP Link router Nano as the manual does a great job. One thing you must remember is that you must assign a static IP address on your wired Ethernet connection of computers to access the Web interface internal of the Nano. The Nano is configured with an Ethernet cable at any time. It's security that the router that has DHCP disabled so if you connect to a network, you won't crash it with an IP address conflict. The Nano is powered by a USB cable and comes with a USB AC adapter too.
The IP address of the Nano is default 192.168.0.254. Set your computers Ethernet Port, adapter not wireless, a static IP 192.168.0.1, 255.255.255.0 DNS address. You have to find a way to do it yourself, but it is explained in the manual and on the web for the operating system of your computer.
This leaves your wired Ethernet connection to a static IP address and your adapter wireless DHCP. Don't forget to put your wired to DHCP if you need to use it later for a wired connection. Connect the Ethernet cable from your computer to the router Nano.
Set up your browser by going to 192.168.0.254 (Nano IP address) in the address bar and you'll get the username and password login screen. The default username and password is admin/admin, you can change it if necessary.
Set the Nano bridged mode:
Other modes will be mentioned later but for now; Bridge mode will serve as this isolates and creates your own SSID private the hotel/motel/dorm room open wireless network SSID. In Bridge Mode you entrance and connect to the Rangoon SSID (paraphrasing) AND set up your own small network with your own SSID and password. Your SSID will be separated and protected through WPA2-AES security that you set up. You will be able to go online normally fine, but all of your devices will now connect to your private SSID.
Example:
Hotel SSID: HILTON Hotel Paraphrase and password: GUEST
Nano SSID: MYNETWORK Nano Paraphrase/password: HP5514
With this information, the rest is easy. You set your SSID private and password first, they you must find and connect to the SSID and password hotels. Simply click on the SURVEY button and a list of all available networks will be displayed along with their MAC addresses. Find the network SSID, you want to connect (bridge) too and click on "connect". Information is entered automatically. I suggest that you also edit your channel wireless on a fixed channel as the 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto '.
Save your settings and you will be told to restart the router. Follow the instructions and always restart the router after any changes take effect. This Nano restarts in 20 seconds approximately.
Now on your computer when you scan available networks, you will see MYNETWORK. Connect your computer to the SSID and enter your HP5514 password and you're on! Start surfing or something else.
Now, what about your printer? The printer must be set to DHCP and assuming that you have a printer wireless with front panel:
- Go to (Assistant) wireless configuration screen.
- Search for available networks.
- Select: MYNETWORK
- Enter your password: HP5514
- To connect!
In about 15 seconds, you're connected! Oh, guess what? The Nano has a WAN/LAN port and in Bridge mode, it is a LAN port that is connected to your network too! Then plug into a printer/computer Ethernet cable, if you wish.
Your printer will work as usual with no change at all. I set up in my house to test and it connected perfectly to my HP5514 wireless printer. All the tools, diagnostics, printer functions, alerts of ink were normal.
You're done!
The bottom can be used anywhere to create a local private network so that you and others can use your printer.
Now, what about the changes? If at home, you can use the Nano in Repeater mode to connect to your own network and extend the reach of all devices. Even as the Bridge mode, but you're on your network using your SSID and the word normal, so everyone can use the printer.
Don't worry what you heard with speed of execution of a router in Repeater Mode. Most routers House when running in wireless Repeater mode should be set to no encryption or WEP only. Here max speed is 54 Mbps. This Nano turns at full speed of 150 Mbps in these modes, using the highest security WPA2-AES (personal).
Remember that the size is small, so it's good to perhaps more than 50 feet. HD video streaming was impeccable and surf watch video at the same time was perfect.
I hope this help you when business or vacation. Some hotels charge for EACH device connection. With the implementation above, it takes only a charge for multiple devices, such as cell phones, iPads, light fires, computers or anything else you want to connect.
EDIT - do not forget that this Nano device has an Ethernet connection that once configured, you can use to connect a wired computer or wired Ethernet printer. It is a good radio your printer wireless doesn't have to convert a wired Ethernet wireless printer or if you want your printer to support greater security WPA2 wireless.
Have fun!
Read here on how to connect your printer to a network asking for additional security and information (username and password).
Most likely, you won't be able to connect.

Problems connecting to wireless printer
I have a HP photosmart D110 printer. Most of the time, it has been great so far, but sometimes it disconnect and won't let me print. Now, he says that it is offline and no matter what I have changed nothing. I used the HP print and scan doctor but it says that it cannot connect with my camera. After exhausting all other options, I decided to uninstall and reinstall the software. Well, I tried to reinstall with the officail for my printer HP software but it does not work. Whenever I put the IP address of the printer in, the screen will say that it has not been found. So I tried to find the IP address without type me into it, but it still does not work. I have a wireless connection to my laptop, laptop to my printer. I can connect to the printer itself to my network, but of course, now that the software is uninstalled I can't do anything.
I am really stuck and need help.
Well, you will need to read the manual of your router and your printer manual. Go to your printer support page and searching the web site of HP using too.

Wireless devices shows the MAC address for 1 device that does not have an IP address
I am tracking down each device connected to my router nighthawk and I identified everyone except this. There is a device of Wirelsss appears when I connect to the router that does NOT have an IP address but it has a MAC address. An interesting point is that the router device itself has a number of MAC that is not anywhere in the list of devices. Any ideas what this could be? I have an Extneder range wireless attached Nighthawk also but I already idenfified his IP address and Mac address.
How a device could have a mac address, but not IP address?
Why the address of the router device do not show in the list of anywhere?
Try to turn off the Extender and see if that will fill again.

Works of scan, print says it works but does not work
Hi all! Everyone seems to have the opposite problem - wireless printing, but the scan is not. Not me! I choose "scan" of my printer OR computer interface and it starts right up. Problem is, when I go to print it crosses the 'impression' screen, then said "finished printing" (no crash, error, or something in the queue to delete - it's in the queue, then it disappears as if printed), but no results of the company at the end of the printer!
Before ask you, yes the printer works (print from a card SD inserted directly on the printer, or old computers connected via a network). Yes, I turned everything and turn it back on. Yes I tried to download printing HP & scan doctor, and he said all right, see ink levels etc, but its test page like any other print job. Yes I deleted the whole HP and re downloaded and searched/connected my computer via the wireless network. And, as previously mentioned, it scans. Oh and tells me that my ink level! Clearly, there is communication, but not for that. What weird sous-parametre I'm missing?
And also, if you can solve this problem, can you give me an idea if it's going to suddenly begins to print 80 pages or I tried to beam on, so I can stop it? : )
Thank you muchly!

I recently bought Apple TV but the TV I want to hang up to does not have an HDMI input. I bought a converter HDMI cord at Radio Shack, but it did not work. Any suggestions?
You may be able to find a connector to work but which would not guarantee that he would not stop working on the road. Minimal tech spec of the ATV4 is a HDMI connection to the tv. My recommendation is to upgrade your TV rather than trying to get a square peg in a round hole. That's just my 2 cents...
