HP Photosmart C4780 connects not (wireless) on Mac or wireless network

Sorry for the long post, but please someone help me!

I bought my new printer a few days (actually 14th) and began to implement on my MacBook Pro with my Wi - Fi, which is routed through a Linksys router and mainly through my desktop computer (a PC with Windows XP). I used the CD that came with the printer to set it up on my Mac and it has set up the fine by USB, but when I try to set up the wireless, I get the following message:

"Device not connected: to configure the network settings for the selected device, please connect via USB temporarily." The device can be disconnected from the USB once the network settings are transferred. »

I reconnected and got the same message over and over again, so I decided to set up on my desktop computer instead. This does not work either and I got the same message on my desk I have on my laptop. Uninstalled on both computers, reinstalled and I STILL got the same message. At this point, I'm about to throw all the electronics in my bath tub and be done with them but on the contrary, I checked (and double checked - and triple checked) my router via my browser settings, fact that I know the SSID and the password and reconnected to the network through my laptop... Once again, the same message. I tried the network installation of push, the installation of the network PIN, I feel I have tried everything! Probably miss me something small, but eyes fresh is always an asset.

Can someone help me? I printed a Test report of the network so that a Page Network Configuration and settings I received both... if need be, I can post the information from my router, in order to verify to implement, but after two days of trying to implement something that should have taken ten minutes (sometimes) I'm at my wits end.

Network Test report:

"Your HP printer cannot find your wireless router. Check our wireless router has power. Make sure that your network (SSID) HP printer name exactly matches your router (SSID) wireless network name. If they do not exactly match, run the installation of the wireless network to set up your HP printer. »

How to change the network name of the printer to match?

Although I was given my SSID (which does not match my home network - but how can I change this?) and my MAC address (I guess for the printer), so I didn't have the IP address of my printer has no way for me to get online to check all the settings! Is there another way to get this IP address?

  • Once I connect my Photosmart C4780 to my wireless network, I lose everything internet.

    My router is a Netgear WNDR3700v3 with firmware version V1.0.0.22_1.0.17.  I can get internet to work on my HP pavilion dv7 with windows 7 64 bit, my smart sony TV, my xbox 360 and a phone that I connect to my wireless router.  The second, I configured my HP Photosmart C4780 wireless router I lose internet on all devices.  I can connect to the router again but can't get out to the internet. What would be the printer could prevent me from accessing internet?

    We will set an IP address of the printer:

    -Print a the front of the printer Network Setup Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
    -Enter the IP address in a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
    -Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
    -On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') 250
    -Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    -Enter the IP of your router (on the Page of the Network Config) for the gateway.
    -Enter for the first DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for second DNS.
    -Click 'apply '.

    Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

    After that, you will have to redo 'Add printer' using the new IP address.

    Hi guys! I need your help!

    My laptop Satellite Pro has suddenly decided to refuse to connect to wireless networks.
    all except my home router from the sky.

    I have moved since and am not able to connect to the free public Wi - Fi.
    No error message; Just click to connect to a particular network and nothing happens.

    I've been back home since and it connects automatically.
    I have Windows 8 and have not been able to find any trace of the Sky network to deselect etc.

    Any ideas?

    > I've been since back home and it connects automatically.
    This means that you can connect to your WiFi network at home without big problems?
    This indicates that s laptop WiFi connection works correctly.

    I put t know what Satellite Pro, you have exactly, but have you checked if you can update the WLan driver?

    What happens if you change the Wlan standard? (802.11 a / B / G or N)
    This can be changed in the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab

    How to connect to wireless networks more away?

    Is there any way I can improve my reach wireless laptops so I can connect to wireless networks more away?

    Hello!

    You can only connect to wireless networks that recognizes the laptop. If the laptop recognizes a wireless network, you can connect to them. If he doesn t recognize (because it is further away) you can't connect.

    In addition, you cannot improve the scope of the laptop wireless. You can do it on a WIFI router, and not on the laptop.

  • Unable to connect to wireless networking

    My Toshiba laptop has been pre-installed with Windows 7 Home premium 64 - bit OS and it worked quite well with the BB wireless. However, the wireless internet was on and turned off in recent weeks, while other mobile devices, such as iphone, ipad, or laptop, in my household had no such problem. The wireless signal was so strong, but the error message always says "unable to connect to wireless networking. It seemed that there was something wrong with the wireless adapter.

    I got a new adapter properly installed TP-Link wireless. Fortunately, it worked; but unfortunately, it worked for less than 24 hours. It was really frustrating that I, like student full time, depended so much on the wireless network card.

    Help, please! Harry

  • Help! -Lack of software to connect to wireless networks.

    Hi all

    I bought an IBM Thinkpad T42 Type2373 (Made in 2005) WIPED for a young man named Andrew who I am a Mentor for. His family cannot afford it. I installed Windows XP Professional on this topic and went through hundreds of automatic updates from Microsoft. I also installed NIS 2010 and update this AND more still software too.

    Now, knowing he has a Pentium M Processor (1.7 Ghz), I should be able to connect to wireless networks. Right now I am connected to a router Linksys, this is how I'm connected to the internet.

    Obviously, Miss me some software to be able to do. I looked online on the Lenovo site and I saw so much, that I don't know exactly what I need. I know I need an icon to click that search networks wireless in the region, but there is obviously more software I have to install.

    Any help from any of you experts out there would be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much, and Andrew Merci you too!

  • Photosmart C4780: connection for Photosmart C4780 wireless

    I spent two hours through the simplistic menu of the printer, only to print copies of the Configuration Page of HP network and Test wireless network without success reports. I think I made all the necessary steps... such as the restoration's default network.

    "Your HP printer cannot find your wireless router. Check that your wireless router is powered. Make sure that your network printer HP (SSID) name exactly matches the network name (SSID) wireless routher yout. If they do not exactly match, run the installation of the wireless network to set up your HP printer.

    Well, I have entered my IP address of the router as the url of the browser and connected to my cable account, but was not able to change the SSID.

    I also looked at the Youtube page help HP and on discussion forums and tried to use the suggestions.

    One who seems to be similar to my situation is this:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/LaserJet-Printing/driver-for-HP-Photosmart-C4780-for-OS-X-Mavericks/TD-...

    I, too, can't find "the HP network configuration.

    I also downloaded the Printer Driver HP Patch for my OS.

    At this point, I'm not sure that I can do. The other suggestion on this page was to find a friend with a PC. I phone my mother on-site, running Windows 10. I also downloaded its respective driver. I don't know what I should do next. Any help would be appreciated.

    I have a D-Link router, and I can provide additional information, such as IP, WiFi SSID, pine, etc., if necessary.

    Hello

    You need to press on you first, WPS option on the printer.

    Please, try this and let me know how it goes:

    1. On the printer control panel, press the button next to Scan, and then press the button next to the Wireless Menu.
