the router maker support, online documentation, and forums for methods to have broadcast the SSID. Most
manufacturers have excellent online instructions.

Or if you want to stay hidden:

    Because I'm not sure which router you have that's going to be quite general.

    Click Start, go in run, type "CMD" and in the command prompt, type "IPCONFIG" no citation.

    Find the address of a default gateway and enter this address in the address bar of your web browser. You will be asked to enter a user name and password. It is common that it is admin/admin, admin/password, admin/1234. After getting that distant and connected, an update so that we can better you go after knowledge that makes your router. If you happens to go there and feel comfortable going forward, look for the wireless settings tab and there should be a sub-category of security. Use WPA2-PSK, whatever you ask for password will be your new password in order to access your wireless network.

  • M1217nfw how to change a wireless Ethernet

    I have my printer M1217nfw configured to use the wireless network. Is there an easy way to switch to the use of the Ethernet cable rather... without uninstall/re-installing of all machines on the network?

    Hi @SlithyTove,

    I see by your post that you want to set up a wireless connection, Ethernet connection. I can help you with this.

    It is really not difficult to pass. Depending on your operating system, I can give you more detailed instructions.

    Restore the default settings of the printer. Go to configuration, network configuration, default restore.

    Connect the Ethernet to the printer to the router.

    Wait a minute and you should get a new IPV4 address assigned to the printer.

    Then, run the Windows printer Add Wizard or add the printer to the Mac from the windows printers and Scanners.

    On windows you can simply return the port to the new IP address also.

    Go to start, devices and printers, right click on the printer, go to the printer properties, select the ports tab.

    Click Add Port, select the Port TCP/IP Standard, then New Port and follow the instructions in the wizard.

  • Is satellite C660 - 11 H - possible to change the wireless network card?

    Hi guys,.

    I'm looking to change the card Wifi on my C660 11 H since a Realtek 8188CE for a Realtek RTL8187B, for reasons that cannot be discussed on this forum. I was just wondering if the new card will be compatible, if I understand his also a Bluetooth card? I know that in the past, this is a case of grooving of the card and connecting the antennas.

    Finally, can anyone provide me the model number of the integrated Realtek WAN adapter? In system information, he simply says Wan Adapter PCI-E FE?

    Thanks for your help / Ryan

    Hey,.

    To be honest, it would be interesting to know why you want to change the WLAN card. You are not satisfied, or what are the reasons for this?

    In the forum, there are some discussions on the WLAN on Satellite C660 questions but this could be solved with latest Realtek driver and turning off energy saving as you can in large number of discussions:

  • Suddenly can't connect to the wireless network: limited connectivity or none, I tried to bugs, no help!

    I have a laptop with Windows Vista. Recently, I upgraded my home wireless internet connection, which meant the laptop could go online (previously I had just used online office). It worked very well without any problems, until I enabled him to download updates windows (don't know if it was a service pack or only some updated files). Now, I am no longer able to connect, I don't always get limited connectivity or none even if the wireless signal is "excellent". I tried 2 ' difficulty his "from microsoft, including TCP/IP, no effect. I tried to turn off my IPv6 setting, no effect.

    I am considering currently switch to XP Pro, even though I grew to like the 'look' of Vista, so it would be a shame. But I have to be able to get the laptop online!

    Any help gratefully received... I'm not very tech-savvy so I need the stupid version :)
