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,

H.

  • 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.

  • 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,

    Hello

    You may not use the iPad to connect your printer to the router. You cannot access your router, then most likely you can not connect. The router comes from your neighbor's House? You must Access the printer or at least you have a computer that is connected to this router. If you want to print, direct wireless can help:

    Hi gus,.

    Than you for your message.

    "I can't printer to pick up the signal from my laptop wireless."

    You use a wireless router to share your network?

    "I also have no ip and not the gateway ip address."

    Is - with reference to the computer or the printer?

    "The question is my cell phone and my printer can not communicate. My printer does not have an IP address.

    You try to get the laptop to deliver the IP address of the laptop?

    I propose to move the printer closer to the network router to isolate the interference problems.

    I know that there are similar problems posted everywhere, but I can't seem to find the right solution. My WiFi works fine but cable did not see the router or on the internet. A few details:

    I can communicate between hosts and wireless on the router.

    The router assigns the IP both wired and wireless.

    The wired connection works on the laptop and wireless works on it, too.

    Wired does not work on the desktop, there is no wireless capability.

    Cable cannot reach 196.168.1.1, wireless can.

    I have updated the firmware of the router.

    I installed the latest drivers for the NIC.

    The office (cable) connects to the internet via cable modem, without going through the router.

    I have no firewall active or other security features.

    Same results with Firefox, IE, and Casimir FTP.

    I turned off, turned on, rebooted, changed the ports and everything else I can think.

    Hello

    I have a Linksys WRT610N (material v1) router, and I have configured settings wireless for the range of 5 Ghz and 2.4 Ghz

    wireless network, but the problem is that my laptop (wifi compatible n) detects the 2.4 Ghz network, but is NOT the

    5 Ghz network.  I have no idea what the problem could be :-(

    Here is my setup :

    (5 Ghz) wireless network settings :

    network mode: only wireless-n

    network name (SSID): WRT610WiFi-N

    channel width: auto (20 or 40 Mhz)

    broad channel: auto (DFS)

    SSID broadcast: enabled

    (2.4 Ghz) wireless network settings :

    network name (SSID): WRT610WiFi-G

    channel width: only 20 Mhz

    broad channel: auto
