DeskJet 3070 unable to connect to the ad hoc network

Hello

I'll put up my new HP Deskjet 3070. This printer has wireless capability. I would use it wireless with my laptop Macbook Pro (OSX 10.6.8).

I don't have a wifi network or router at home. That's why I created a wifi (one to one) on my mobile ad - hoc network, named MyPrinterNetwork. This is the type of network used to connect a computer to the other on wifi. MyPrinterNetwork is then visible to other devices compatible wifi (other computers, smartphone,...), and devices can connect to the network (and share files or Internet by wifi). This thread http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/Connect-Deskjet-3070A-wirelessly-to-my... suggests that this printer is able to connect to ad hoc networks.

I then launch the HP utility to configure the printer. But when the screen appears with the list of available wifi networks, MyPrinterNetwork is not in the list. The list contains only the other wifi available through networks points (values in wifi mode column are all infrastructure) access. If I try to enter the name of a network manually, the software indicates that the printer cannot see or connect to this network.

Executive Summary:

-Someone would confirm that the printer Deskjet 3070 is able to connect to the ad-hoc wifi networks?

-If so, why my adhoc network isn't in the list in the configuration utility?

Thanks and greetings

Johnny

Hello Johnny.

Deskjet 3070 Network Infrastructure support only, it does not support the ad-hoc connection.

As you can find in the user manual:

Traditional wireless connection (requires router)

To connect the HP All-in-One to an integrated wireless WLAN 802.11 network, you will need the following:

- A wireless 802.11b/g/n network that includes a wireless router or access point.
NOTE: 802.11n will only support 2.4Ghz

 A desktop computer or laptop with either wireless networking support, or a network interface card (NIC). The computer must be connected to the wireless network that you intend to install the HP All-in-One on. 

Page 33:http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02887357.pdf

As an alternative, try feature that allows the mac to act as a router in Mac OS X internet sharing Infrastructure mode:

http://docs.info.Apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mchlp1540.html

A limitation, you should be aware, the Internet sharing security supports WEP in shared only authentication mode that is not supported by the printer you can find below:

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02871178

Therefore, you should keep sharing without security password in order to connect the printer to the network.

It will be useful,

  • HP Deskjet 3510: HP Deskjet 3510 - unable to connect to the printer

    I had this printer for some time but have never been able to properly print to this printer using this specific computer.   FYI, I'm trying to print wireless at it. This office has wireless compatibility.  I have the drivers and all (I think, I HP everything at the time but not the disk that came with it I lost only).  Don't know why it fails, he said only: "unable to connect to the printer.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi aunt Shirley.

    First of all, we're going to connect the printer to the network:

    -Restore default values of network within the menu on the front panel of the printer wireless.
    -From your computer, connect wirelessly to the network printer (it should be a name similar to HP - Setup - xx - Deskjet 3510).
    -After successfully connecting to the printer, open a web browser such as Internet Explorer or Chrome and type 192.168.223.1 in the address bar and press ENTER.
    -Click on the Wireless Setup Wizard
    -Select your router and enter the password to connect to the printer to the router.

    Run again the printer software to your computer to rediscover the printer on the network.

  • HP Deskjet 3050 - unable to connect to the WPA secure wireless network

    Hello

    My first post here so please excuse any misstep on my part.  I bought this HP Deskjet 3050 a week ago and have since been war with it.  I would be really grateful if someone could possibly give advice on how I can solve this problem.

    I am unable to connect the printer to my secure wireless network, even if the other computers, cell phones, etc. are connected without problem.  I tried WPA, WPA2 and WPA2-Mixed modes with the same failure security. Specifically, the 66% reached Connection Wizard, then displays the error that the wizard can not find/network printer.  If I disable the security, the printer connects very well.

    I use a Linksys WRVS4400N router with firewall and associated firewall disabled settings.  The router broadcasts on 802. 11 g / N mixed mode.

    I install the software provided on the CD for installation on a Windows XP SP3 System.  I confirmed that the PC and the printer are connected to the network are the same.

    The issue as well, if you will allow me: I have not yet tried these drivers, but I see there are any updated drivers for the printer in date from 14/12/2010.  The release notes indicate the improvement of networks, but do not develop beyond that.  Does anyone know if there was a known problem with the connection to secure networks that has now been corrected?

    Finally, just a note that I am partially blind and using a screen on all systems reader.  I'll try my best to be as helpful as I can to please forgive me if I can't find the settings, etc. on screen and sometimes need help for a little more detail.

    Thanks in advance for your help, I really enjoyed.

    Have a nice day,

    All the best for now and take care,

    Hussein.

    It is not the fact that it is impossible, is the fact that this was not done, yet.

    Hello

    first of all, my apologies for the delay getting back to you.  Poor health means that I had little time or want to do great thing on the side of the computer of htings.

    In any case, I am please to say the problem with the HP 3050 failing to connect to my network is now resolved.  There seems to be a bug with the installer, and that seems to include the version the most recent publication Dec 2010.

    To resolve this problem, I did the following:
    1. disable all security for the network options, so it's just an open network.
    2. connect the HP 3050 to the network by using the installation wizard. This time it connected OK for me.
    3. Locate the IP address of the printer.  I used the table of customer list accessed by my router interface. You may be able to get this through the printer on the menu screen, but as I am partially blind, it wasn't an option for me.
    4. Enter the control panel of the printer to http://ip.address.of.printer for example http://192.168.2.108
    5. under Advanced options, configure the network settings, including the password and the Security Protocol.  Don't forget to enter the SSID of the network exactly as it is configured on the router.
    6. apply settings, disconnect from the control panel of the printer.
    7 log in the router configuration panel and re-apply the security options.  Make sure they match these match those entered for the printer.

    I hope it will be useful to others in the same position.

    Thanks again for your time.

    Best,

  • Unable to connect to the internet, no network adapter icon?

    I received a computer toshiba satellite laptop which should have windows 7 ultimate on, however it does not connect to the internet wireless or ethernet, I lived all the troubleshooting suggestions, but there is no network adapter icon to activate. The laptop was of an elderly aunt who barely used and was not very tech savvy so I don't think that its been damaged (it has not been used for some time) any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Are there devices listed as "other"?

    If there is, run as 'Administrator' Device Manager and do a right click, properties, [pilot tab] and try to "roll back driver" (I guess the update driver will not work if the PC is not connected to the internet, but it can also be worth a try)

    If this does not work, try to force the hardware detection - http://www.pctips3000.com/how-to-scan-windows-7-computer-for-newly-attached-hardware/

    If still no joy, use another PC to go to the support site for the brand/model PC and download the latest driver available for your PC and the operating system network card (32/64 bit, etc.) and transfer it to the PC via a USB or SD card. Then try to install it.

    BIOS - how you access the BIOS will depend on the brand / model of the PC and the BIOS itself, but it gives an example: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/ht/accessbios.htm give it a read and see if you can follow. Ensure that you change and not change things randomly.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your request here in the Microsoft Community.

    This issue could be caused due to any third-party security software or a firewall. I would like to this firewall security software is installed on your computer?

    Temporarily disable Windows Firewall and check if the problem persists. If you use a third party firewall then try disabling that as well. This is to check if the problem is caused due to any firewall related issue or not.

    See the following article from Microsoft Help to disable the Windows Firewall.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/Windows-Firewall-from-start-to-finish

    Note: refer to the "Turn Windows Firewall on or off" section in the following article from Microsoft Help to disable the Windows Firewall. The steps apply as well to Windows 10 Technical Preview.

    Warning: deactivate temporarily the Antivirus\Firewall, then check the issue. Sometimes they may be in conflict. Please make sure that you enable the antivirus software\firewall after the test to keep your computer protected.

    If this problem is specific to a Web page, then you will need to contact the ISP as Karthik Vengaloor mentioned in his answer.

    Please reply with the status of the issue so that we can better help you.

  • DeskJet 3512: Unable to connect to the network

    I have a Mac, iPad, and iPhone. My husband has an iPad and we just got him an iPhone today. When we tried to connect his phone to the router, we forgot the password. I had to reset the password and then managed to get all 5 devices connected.

    The problem is the Deskjet 3512. Wireless light both blink light eprint. I tried to remove the security on the router, and I was able to print. But when I handed the security WPA - PSK I couldn't print. I had this happen once before and was read to reconnect, but this time I tried everything I could think of and everything I read and nothing has worked so far.

    Any suggestion?

    FYI - I am 74 years old and have some experience with computers, etc. but I've eaten an age when I want things to work. Please keep that in mind when offering suggestions. Please keep simple and no baby...

    I ended up buying a new printer. No problem getting it to connect.

  • Portege Z30 - A - unable to connect to the GSM mobile network.

    Toshiba Portege Z30 - A Windows 7 Prof

    When I try to connect to a modem GSM receives the error:
    "Network connection based on a mobile broadband connection failed with the error code: 1.

    (GSM card works properly in other devices)

    Hello

    According to the Microsoft Knowledge base, the error code 1 means that the device is not configured correctly.
    One of the reasons why the device isn't configured correctly might be missing a driver or the driver / software are configured incorrectly.

    Recommend you to check the configuration.

  • OTP-S6200 unable to connect to the Sony entertainment network

    I have a new BDP-S6200 and I can't connect to Sen. I have the network set up correctly which means that when I perform network diagnostics it reports 'network connections are correct. I've tried wired and wireless. One of the first things I did was download and install the update to firmware M21. R.0112.

    I also tried a reset and reconfiguration and turn off and unplug the unit for 10 seconds.

    System Information also indicates "LINK Connection Status: successful" and "Provisioning Server Connection Status" -"."

    Found a solution to my problem in another topic. It was to go to network settings and to change primary DNS Server 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 secondary DNS server. (Must manually configure your IP address, etc.). After that go to SEN which is the menu item right on my X-bar menus, press 'OPTIONS' on remote, select "Update List". At this point, since I've never been this well before, asked me to register the device to www.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com. Then it worked.

  • locked settings by the adiministrator system and unable to connect with the new wireless network

    I changed my ISP and routers.  I need to change the settings to the new router wireless.  However, when I try to access the network settings on the printer through the screen on the printer, it is said that it is locked by the system administrator.  I am the admin.  Where can I access it without being on the network?  I tried to reset to the default values of factpry, but the same problem exists; It is blocked by the system administrator.

    I was able to solve the problem.  I went through the set up using the USB cord.  Then I switched it to wireless technology.

  • Unable to connect to the App Store and auto delete app

    Hi, I never update my ipad because I never, and I do not have the space for it anyway. Now and then I get the message saying ipad needs space for the update, press ok to allow deletion, or something in that sense. Theres two options cancel or ok. Today I accidentally pressed ok. He deleted my largest app and now I am having problems with the App Store. I can open it and see the recommended page. I think I can upload them as well, but when I use the search bar, it says unable to connect to the App Store. I don't know what to do and how to cancel.

    First of all, make sure that you don't have enough free space before trying to re-download the application. Once you know that you have enough space, try these two ways to get to the app.

    Click on the tab purchased on the App Store and see if the application appears in a search here or just trying to slide through until you see the app and then download it from there.

    If this does not work, do a Google search for the app. It should appear in the search. Tap on the app in the Google search and who should open the description window app on the App Store with the download next to the app icon.

  • Unable to connect using the current password

    Using the current password which only had 6 characters - have now changed to 8 hope if this helps solve the problem.
    Have you noticed too there was an update of Mozilla on my laptop the day before that this problem then this could be the reason?

    Unable to connect using the current password

    It is far from a complete problem description.
    Please explain in detail

    • what you were doing
    • That's happened

    Using the current password which only had 6 characters

    6 characters is a very weak password. Consider using a password manager to generate longer and more complex passwords and to remember these passwords.

  • Unable to connect to the internet update version

    I've updated to the latest version 35, but since then, the browser seems unable to connect to the internet. I thought it was my firewall that was blocking the program. I did what was suggested to work around this problem, that is, to remove my firewall and then add it again. But it does not solve the problem. There is nothing wrong with my internet, how am I be able to connect to internet by using IE or Chrome. And I was able to connect to the internet in the previous version of Firefox. Unfortunately, the new updated version is not allow me to. Have no solution?

    It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.
