HP Officejet 5740: disconnects from the network

IMac El Capitan & Airport extreme router

Printer will connect and stay connected while Mac is turned off.

Turn on the Mac and the wireless connection is lost

In some cases "impossible to find the network" in others, bad IP address.

Have you tried wiring printer to the router (ethernet USB) same results

Also tried hard wiring for Mac

and finally no. son... basically all with the same results.

Have tried all the suggestions reboot router, Mac, printer...

Connects and disconnects...

Need help

I wanted to leave you hanging...

Contacted Comcast and said that my modem is too old and it to replace.

Now, I have a new modem/wifi combo and everything works.

It reminds me of the guy who bought a button of his jacket and ended up having to buy a new jacket for the button!

In any case thank you for your patience, and all's well that ends well.

  • SOLUTION for your HP printer disconnect and/or constantly disconnecting from the network

    If you are having a problem printing, scanning or fax with any HP printer because of this be disconnected and constantly disconnecting from the network, here again is the fix!

    I thought that this all after several failed attempts with HP Support, my Internet access provider and various troubleshooting tasks including reinstall the HP software and more and more.  Well, through self teaching on internet and exhausting search for 6 months, I FINALLY thought to it.  OMG!  I'm a paramedic (not IT) and a little computer but far not an expert.  I have all of you here!  Nobody seems to have the answer, but I'm sure that I'm doing it to 97%.  Whatever it is, if it please answer and let me know that it worked for you!  :-)

    It doesn't matter if your printer is installed cable or wireless.  You don't reinstall your software, no recycling power of your printers or your router/Modem.  Your printer is unstable on the network and continues to log out or disconnect from the network it is NOT because the software is glitched, it isn't a firewall problem by saying, is not a router problem, is not a problem with your power cord, because most networks use a 'Beach' and IP addresses for security reasons This kind of "cycles" the IP addresses of the devices to reduce the risk of an attack.  A printer is not a threat, but the 'network' don't own human intelligence, so he does not know this.  Here are my step by step instructions on how to basically your printer address IP (static IP) instead of change back through a cycle so drop your printer on the network or disconnected.

    Funny, if you're someone who has had the elements in your print queue, they will not print, and you turn your printer off and on again and suddenly your print... well documents, join my club.  The reason it works is that when you turn on the printer, it starts with the same IP address before cycle.  If you are someone who is sitting there for a while and all of a sudden your printed documents without changing you something... it is because through the cycle of change of IP address, it hits your printers IP address and the network would allow him to print.  Not very funny, I know.  It took me forever to figure out why my printer would print sometimes, but not always.  Since I thought at this point, I can SCAN, PRINT, and use all the features of my HP software installed like HP, Photosmart Essentials Solution Center.

    On your printer, go to menu/Setup/network and press OK.  In the network menu, print a "network configuration page" so you can see the IP address and other settings of your printer.

    Now, back to the main menu on the screen of your printers.  Or you can go to your web browser and type the IP address using decimal numbers too and this will take you to the web page of your printers.  Choose: setup\network, then press OK.  Look for the IP settings and press OK. Choose "manual" instead of "automatic". Manually enter the IP address it as well as the default gateway that you can see the Network Setup page you printed earlier.  Note: If you manually set the IP Address of the printer, make sure that it is outside the range of your router's DHCP. Otherwise you might encounter a problem with IP addresses on your network duplicate. (If you don't know how to do this, write back and I'll explain).  Don't forget to click "save changes".  Now, restart your computer, and print just what you want.  :-)

    A trick I often use with DHCP network printers:
    In printers and faxes, right-click on the printer and select "Properties".  Click Add a new port.  Choose standard TCP/IP port configured for the host name of the printer. Read the host name of the network printer configuration sheet.

    Using my method means that you always connect to the printer even if its IP address changes (which can happen with the dynamic configuration). This does not jeopardize the security of your network.  It shows just your printer to stay put and stop traveling the highway of IP address.  :-)

    The DHCP range is the range of IP addresses that the router distributes automatically as devices to join the network.  The DHCP range is determined by the router and each brand has a range that is set at the factory (which can be changed by you).

    Default value for the DHCP of your D-link is 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.199.  Thus, outside the DHCP range est.2 a.99.200 a.254.

    Is a handy cheat sheet attached.

    You can change this interval by entering the router settings page - type the router's IP address in a browser, enter the login information and access the DHCP parameter area (varies depending on router, hunting around).

  • Satellite A200 Win8 64bits - Atheros AR5006EX disconnects from the network at random

    First of all, sorry for my bad English.

    Hi, I installed W8 a few weeks ago and I have a problem with the WiFi. The adapter disconnects from the network at random. Not a protocol TCP/IP fail because I don't lose the connection to the internet, I lose the connection to the network for everyone.
    Simply disconnected from any wifi network.

    I have read that wifi chips Qualcomm have problems with drivers in W8. I tested many pilots and all do not work properly.

    Any help?

    The wifi card is: Qualcomm atheros AR5006EX and the laptop is: Toshiba satellite A200-1TP.

    Drivers I tested (and didn't work):

    http://drivers.Softpedia.com/get/network-card/Atheros/Atheros-AR5006EX-WLAN-driver-300119-for-Windows-8-x64.shtml

    Thank you!

    Do you have these problems with the operating system supported?
    I mean A200 is pretty old machine and certainly not supported for Win8, so it can be a problem with all of this, especially with the drivers.

    Let's see if someone else has the same machine and have the solution to this.

  • Current file to use when it is disconnected from the network wireless/wired - shared network drive

    Hello

    We have a problem where we receive a "file in use" message when you are disconnected from the network. To reproduce the problem, what we do is:

    (1) connect to the wired network wireless disabled with

    (2) create a test document

    (3) to enter text and save on network share

    (4) remove the network cable

    (5) add additional text

    (6) reconnect the network cable

    (7) try to save the file to the network share

    At the beginning by clicking the X is the new message you want to save. Click Yes and the message arrives until the next time you hit the Hit of X no. and he loses the last change.

    From here we then go up to the network share, open the file and it comes up with "file in use. Open read-only. File is opened by us (Administrator account), and there is NO temporary file in the shared folder.

    Tried so far:

    -Run net config server/autodisconnect:-1 for trying to stop it disconnect the share

    -Checked pane, pane preview and off 'display the description of the pop-up window for folder and desktop items '.

    -Windows Update

    We try to reproduce on wired connection, because it is easier to reproduce that disconnects wireless. Seems to have an impact on several operating systems. Share folder is shared on a Windows 2008 R2 x 64 machine.

    Is this a known problem or is there something that we can configure to try to prevent the locking file after logging out? Ideally, we want the decline to go unnoticed and provide uninterrupted service to the user, unless they are trying to save during the fall.

    Thanks in advance for comments :)

  • Disconnecting from the network home

    Win 7 I have a stand-alone computer (not other computers) with a USB - connected printer and a connection to a modem (without router) via a network (?) (not USB) cable.  I have no other computers or printers.  Win 7 connected me to a network home, maybe because my printer is compatible with wireless (but I have no WiFi - or interest in functionality).  If I disconnect the home network I lose the internet connections or printer?

    My apologies but I found your statement at the opening a bit confusing.

    Your home network is connected to the modem, a local area network, and is a type of HOME that helps your computer share with a reliable source, connected to your modem/router.

    A HOME network is essentially the default setting...

    A PUBLIC network limited with any computer that can be attached to your router/modem to share files.

    If your printer is connected via a USB cable, disconnect from the network will NOT affect the communications between your computer and the printer and the printer will do what you expect it to do.

    However, you will lose Internet you disable the network connection.

    I'm so frustrated... Please help?

    In order to re - connect the printer to the network, you will need to plug in your USB cable.

    1. click on Start Menu

    2. Select all PROGRAMS

    3. choose the HP folder

    4. go to Officejet 4620

    5. add printer or software product Setup &, it should give you option (convert USB wireless).

  • The VM that is disconnected from the network.

    A VM in our environment VI3.5 disconnected about twice monthly since network (is more accessible). There is no log information in the VM logs or Windows logs on a network problem. If the virtual machine is disconnected I had to remove the tick 'connected' (in the VM/edit settings) and set the scales again. After this procedure, the virtual machine is back in the network and works very well. The virtual machine is a virtual machine (VMware Converter 3 Enterprise) P2V.

    No idea what could cause the problem?

    Help would be appreciated!

    Hello

    I saw a strange behavior on two VMS (converted), they changed their AMD PCNET Family Ethernet Adapter network card driver (or I think they did, not 100% sure that we forgot to check this last after they have been converted) which resulted in 10 Mbps on the adapter (not disconnected) check your network adapter driver.

    If you have not already done so, remove all hidden devices (clean your VM).

    It will not help you at all, but I tried =)

  • Lose connectivity to the virtual computer on your laptop when you are disconnected from the network

    Hello

    I have a laptop with a Windows 2003 virtual machine (VPC 2007) with IIS 6.0, hosting a Web site for testing and development.

    Using Dreamweaver and navigation on the site of the XP laptop (VM host) works very well when the network cable is connected.

    Interestingly, this will work, but VERY slowly when plugged into an empty network switch.

    The virtual machine has the laptop computer adapter selected to work. I tried to use a loopback cable and it did not work. I also tried to add the MS Loopback Adapter but not had any luck with that when you set the virtual to use.

    Please can I have some suggestions, laptop user wants to work on this site with the virtual machine when you are away a network connection.

    Thank you

  • El Capitan 10.11.2 disconnects from the network of Canon printer macbook pro after each use but with the same OS version iMac remains connected

    How to prevent my Macbook Pro El Capitan 10.11.2 going to disconnect my network printer Canon?   My iMac running the same OS version don't unplug and behaves like any normal wireless connection.  I deleted the printer and added back, reset printing, etc. nothing works.  Given that the Mac is 6 "each other and 5 feet of printer during the last test, it must be something specific to the Macbook.  The Macbook identifies the printer after each reboot the printer as printer Canon right, but once the task is completed does not have the printer.  Everything is on the same wireless network. Computer Windows also recognizes the printer and it keeps alive after printing.

    Please read this message before doing anything.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

    The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.
