• E3200 and wireless MAC filter will not accept the recent MAC formats

  When I go on the web interface for my Linksys E3200, Wireless > Wireless MAC Filter and try to add the MAC to my new laptop computer to work, the user interface returns an error which is the MAC address in the wrong format. I have triple checked the address and I tried adding several times without success.

  Looking at the address, I'm guessing that the beach is not what the user interface has been programmed to accept because it starts at a much higher range. The first 3 bytes of the MAC address is: 1 c: 3E:84:xx:xx:xx

  My wireless router is E3200 with Firmware Version: 1.0.04)is

  Is there any place on the site Web of Linksys I can drop a ticket?

  Never thought it would be a browser problem. I'll have to keep that in mind.

  The computer I was access to the admin of the router UI wasn't in the wireless MAC filter - highlights the filtering MAC wireless had a list of authorized Mac not refused.

  I think that the problem was because I have 6rd IPv6 configured. Some time after the validation, I needed to update the PPPoE password and got the same error. Disabling (cancellation of the configuration) IPv6 6 Dr allowed me to update the PPPoE password successfully. I've not yet returned and re-activated the MAC filter.

  Thanks for the suggestions!

• Wireless network problem: disconnects randomly anywhere between 1 and 4 hours.

  I have a wireless network problem, it disconnects randomly anywhere between 1 h and 4 h. The network consists of a Samsung 4 G hotspot and a Linksys AE1000. The signal strength is excellent, the AE1000 is 1 ft of the computer and 1 ft of the HotSpot.  The computer is a Dell Dimension 2400. Any ideas?

  Hi Jack,

  Problem solved.  I did 2 assumptions about the original problem.  I assumed that the 2 Tech that I spoke made the hurt their product. Battery saver has been activated on the hotspot.

• Pavillion G6 2014tx: wireless connectivity problems

  Since the last 2-3 months, my wireless connection does not work correctly. This happened right after that I did the partitioning in the D drive (I don't think this is the main cause). What is happening is that, all of a sudden when internet does not bar shows signs of yellow warning and 'tells' LIMITED ACCESS wireless network. When I try to solve problems, it will give no problem. Then in Device Manager, I tried to uninstall and install again, the internet worked for a while, and still the same problem occurs. When I tried to call to the service center, they told me that I have to buy CDs to retrieve a value of rs500 because I did not these recovery disks. I'm in serious trouble please help...

  I also tried to update latest driver frm net, even if the problem does not get resolved. I also tried to reset the TCPIP in cmd prompt, but it worked for 2-3 days and still the same problem happened...

• Windows 7 wireless connection problem

  I just bought a brand new Alienware m17x and all drivers are up to date... .IM with broadcom wireless network adapter. The strange thing is that last night I was on the internet for several hours without any problem using the wireless, but this morning iwas unable to use my wireless internet access. This has happened several times now. Sometimes it says "not connected - no available connections" and sometimes he says "not connected connections are available" when she says, links, I try to connect to the network, but it says "unable to connect to the network. The only time wherever I was able to connect to wireless internet, was when my computer is automatically connected to my wireless network without me having to select the network and attempt to connect. I read things about windows 7, with a mode of "sleeper" for wireless connections or something, and that can be the cause of it and that it is better to turn off or downgrade to xp. I am really frustrated because I am not able to connect wirelessly and I hope you guys can help me find a solution.

   

  Guide to correctly troubleshoot wireless M17x
  with Dell Wireless 1510/Broadcom card
  by Glzmo

  Since many new Alienware M17x all powerful users, especially those who use Windows 7 as operating system there are various problems with their Wi - Fi connection and post threads asking how their difficulty over and over again, I decided to write this guide to show them how to solve these issues properly Commons. The solutions in this guide were created and designed for 64-bit Windows 7, but they may also work in Windows Vista, although these problems were experienced by users of Windows 7 mainly in the past. It could very well be that the problems start occurring in Vista as well with the new drivers and Windows updates.

  I. may not connect to the wireless network and or see the wireless adapter when the Ethernet cable is disconnected
  If you sometimes or always unable to connect to the wireless network, cannot connect to the wireless network when the Ethernet cable is disconnected, unable to connect to a wireless network unless you restart once to get this work and other weird problems to be unable to connect to a wireless network continue with section II. Otherwise, continue with section II..

  Sleep of a.i. Disable on disconnect device
  Some new Nvidia Ethernet drivers have a function called sleep device to disconnect. This is the culprit. Normally, it should only put the card Ethernet to sleep when the cable is disconnected, but it is buggy and thus kill the wireless connection as well.
  Follow these steps to disable this feature on your Ethernet Nvidia card:
  1. open the Device Manager of Windows by pressing Win + break, and then click on Device Manager on the left side.
  2 double-click network adapters.
  3 double click on NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller (Yes, that's indeed wired Ethernet adapter).
  4 click on the Advanced tab.
  5 select sleep on disconnect device.
  6 set the value to disabled.
  7 click OK and wireless should work again (may require a reboot later, but probably not).

  I.b. install different drivers (older) who do not have the device sleeping on disconnect feature.
  The above does not work or if you are not comfortable with these drivers, follow these steps (if step A.i. was successful, you will not need to follow these steps). Take care to create a system restore point before proceeding:
  1. click the Windows Start button in the taskbar.
  2 click on Control Panel.
  3 click on uninstall a program.
  4 in the list, double-click Nvidia drivers.
  5. Mark Remove only the following.
  6 in the box below, only check the Nvidia Network driver.
  7 click Remove and follow the uninstall instructions.
  8 restart the system, if you are prompted to.
  9 download another (older) driver from Nvidia.
  10 install the old driver.
  11 when asked what drivers you want to install, select only the network driver.
  12 follow the installation instructions and restart your system if prompted.

  II. Low or fluctuating wireless connection speeds
  If you have problems with WiFi low connection speeds (such as rates decline over time, the speeds are much lower than they should be, network lag/stutter in online games, loss of light packets, loss of internet connection as LAN works and other weird things) or speeds of fluctuating wildly without apparent reason wireless connection install the version of the Dell Wireless 5.60.18.8 drivers instead of the standard Broadcom drivers. All older drivers will usually cause the speed of connection under normal. Note, however, that you may need to install the driver manually via Device Manager as the pilot was not released for another laptop and is not officially available to the M17x yet - that's why the installer won't work. Take care to create a system restore point before proceeding.
  Here is a step by step how manually install the driver:
  1. download the drivers Dell Wireless 5.60.18.8.
  2 check out the R29128.exe file using an extraction utility like WinRAR or just run it and quit the installation program.
  3. open the Device Manager of Windows by pressing Win + break, and then click on Device Manager on the left side.
  4 double-click network adapters.
  5 double-click the Broadcom 802.11n network adapter entry.
  6 click on the driver tab.
  7 click the button Update driver .
  8 click Browse my computer for driver software.
  9 click on Let me take form a list of drivers for devices on my computer.
  10 click the disk provided .
  11 click Browse.
  12. select the folder that you extracted the drivers you just downloaded in step 1. in.
  13 select the subfolder DRIVER_US (if you are in the United States), DRIVER_JP (if you are in the Japan) or DRIVER_ROW (if you are in the rest of the world), according to the region you are in.
  14 click on the Open button.
  15 click OK.
  16 select the driver that says Dell Wireless 1510 Wireless-N WLAN Mini-Card of the list (you may have to scroll down to see - it presents itself as second to the last in the list for me).
  17 click on the Next button.
  18 you will get a warning that the driver that you are about to install is not compatible with your hardware. Ignore the warning and proceed with the driver installation.
  19 restart your system if prompted to do so.
  20 your new driver should now be properly installed and the speed of your wireless connection in the order.

  III. If all else fails (or you've just had enough of boredom arising from the Dell Wireless 1510/Broadcom card)
  Replace the Dell Wireless 1510 problem with a card half-mini Intel Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300 A/G/N (use the bluetooth as the third antenna antenna or buy you an additional antenna for this). It works very well with the M17x, has better connection speeds to strips of the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz (this last has speeds really bad on the Broadcom/1510), it has not required to jump through the hoops to make it work properly and much more, it works with standard drivers and Intel maintains their drivers up to date. It is also much more reliable and faster as well, especially on the 5 GHz band, but also on the 2.4 GHz band.

  For more information on the subject of tweaking the settings of your Dell Wireless card, check out the official setting advanced properties: Dell Wireless WLAN Card User Guide.

  I hope that this guide will help you solve your Wi - Fi connection and allow you to enjoy speeds of complete wireless connection on your laptop Alienware M17x.

  Download the latest Broadcom driver as an alternative to the Dell a little older driver who may or may not solve the problems more. Some have seen more success than with the 5.60.18.8 drivers with it (you need to use the 802.11n network adapter driver rather than at the entrance to Dell Wireless 1510 Wireless-N WLAN Mini Card in step II.15. the guide when you use this driver).

• Strange problem with wireless MAC

  I think I have a rather unusual question.

  The problem is that my Macbook Pro (osx Lion) is not able to access my Photosmart B109n wireless. I can only connect via the usb cable. I share the printer with two other laptop users (windows), but they are able to connect wirelessly. I have reinstalled the driver several times and tried to install the network configuration again and again but nothing works. This problem exists already for a long time, also until I upgraded to Lion.

  I am convinced that the problem is not due to my router. At school, I'm not able to use the HP color LaserJet as well and I can only print via ethernet. In other words, there is something wrong with my mac. Seriously, I don't know what it could be.

  Our "home network" is called "Fitz". Whenever I try to install the network printer configuration, the printer asks the key network and attempts to connect to "Fitz". Whenever the printer is able to connect to the network. After that, the config. Assistant told me that I can remove the usb cable to continue the installation. Then the problem happens. At the moment I have remove the usb cable, the laptop immediately tells me that it is not able to connect to the printer, because I am not connected to "Fitz" (I'm always) and I can only use the wireless printer if I am connected to "Fitz".

  Reset the print/fax list no longer works!
  
  Please please can someone help me? Thank you!

  Nevermind, I was able to solve the problem today!

  All I had to do was pick "Shared printer on the network" check box in the printer preferences. Gosh, if I had known this before... I was not able to print wireless for 5 months. Makes me so stupid.

• Mac Book Pro and HP Envy 110F wireless printing problems

  I got my Mac book Pro for Christmas 2013 and initially had no problem printing wireless to my HP Envy 110F, but for some reason, I keep getting problems with printing to the envy of 110. We don't have printing problems with our Ipad for this printer.

  I can connect the printer to my Mac book Pro by putting 192.168.1.72 IP address in a web browser, but I get on the symbol bit offline when I print the urge. Last night I reinstalled the printer to print wireless on my mac pro book using a printer cable, which then worked well, but today the same problem reappeared.

  I'm starting to think that the problem may have started with the latest version of the update of the operating system to the Mavericks 10.9.4.

  All thoughts welcome.

  Hi @UKCheshire

  Since you are able to print from the iPad to the wireless printer, I suspect you have to something. I think that the question has something to do with the communication between the printer and the computer and not between the printer and the router. Please use the following document to solve the problem; "Printer is off-line" Message appears on the computer and the printer does not print: Mac OS X.

  If the problem persists, do not give up hope, let me know and we will work through it together.

• Wireless printing problem: Mac OS 10.5 to HP6600 all-in-One

  My customer just bought a printer all-in-one HP OfficeJet 6600. Naturally, the CD than canme with the printer is for a newer Mac OS, so it wouldn't install.

  I was able to locate and download the printer drivers for Mac OS 10.5 and install without any problems.

  It appears the connectivity without wire between the MacBook with Mac OS 10.5 and the HP6600 is in place, when attempting to print to the HP6600 however, it just says it's printing and nothing out of the printer.

  I need a few steps of troubleshooting for this issue.

  Hi TechDaddy,

  OK this means there is a problem of communication while connected wireless. Make sure that the printer and the computer are on the same network SSID and if yes then try to access the EWS - Server Web integrated printer by typing IP address allocated to the printer in the address bar of Safari. Let me know what you find?

• Mac: Officejet 6500 e710n wireless connectivity problems

  Printer: HP Officejet 6500 e710n-z

  Mac OS x Lion 10.7.5

  I have successfully been printing wirlessly with my Offiject 6500 e710n for over a year. Connectivity comes and goes but I was always able to reconnect them by restarting the printer or reconnect them via the IP address of the printer.

  However it doesn't work anymore. I tried to uninstall the printer drivers and reinstall and now the printer is not found wireless on the network at all (despite the fact the wireless printer shows all connections very well). I tried the following:

  -Add the printer manually using the IPv4 address--> says device not found

  -IP address of the printer type in my web browser--> says unable to connect because the server is not responding

  -connect via the usb port on the printer--> recognizes the printer, set up the wireless network, says disconnect and then it disappears again, says device not found

  I'm starting to run out of ideas... Any suggestions to help me reconfigure / reinstall my printer to make it work again would be greatly appreciated!

  Solved the problem - power source disconnected both router and the printer for 60 seconds, then restarted devices and it seemed to fix things

• Officejet 4500 with Mac wireless connection problems

  I have a Macbook Pro running 10.7.5 and an Actiontec PK5001A router (recently replaced).  I went through the installation on the 4500 Wizard and everything was fine.  Run the wireless network Test report and not found problems so it must be in communication with the network.  When I go to add a printer Officejet 4500 shows but only as a fax.

  What router are you using? You've restarted it by pulling on the power cable?

• Someone from HP can tell us when you will correct the C4580/Mac wireless printing problem?

  Like so many other posts on this forum "to support", my C4580 goes into sleep mode and wake up. I have already sent my printer original back, received a replacement and it has the same problem. Brutal...

  Just got the phone with the help of HP, and he said that HP is working on a fix. HP support by phone was always quite useful, but maybe they need to hire some new engineers.

  I see messages from November on this bug, and they do not always have a difficulty?

  This has been an absolute time thief. Next purchase of printer for me: Cannon.

  The Hewlett-Packard Company released an updated firmware for the problem which occurs on the Photosmart series C4500 and Photosmart C4400 series. Updates are currently available for use on the Windows operating system.

  The following links can be used to find the software for the two affected products.

• HP 3050: HP 3050 print - wireless Mac

  I realize I'm very, very stupid, but need help please!

  I have a HP 3050 for a while now and it's always worked flawlessly with my PC. I just traded on a Mac... and that is the question - I know that my problem lies in the understanding of my Mac!

  I can't work on how to get my Mac to print wireless.

  I added the drivers via a wired / USB connection and it works / prints fine, however, how connect the Macbook Air (Yosemite X) to the wireless printer please?

  My Mac and printer are both connected to the wireless network. I need my old Windows PC to continue to work with the printer also.

  I have the impression that AirPrint do smart stuff, but this isn't for me.

  Any help would be much appreciated.
