HPC8180 printer connects to the wireless network, after upgrade firmware to the router wireless

My HPC8180 has been wireless since I bought it some time ago.  I recently had to upgrade the firmware on my router wireless of Netcom NB9W and since then my HP will not solve for the wireless network.

I run the wizzard of wireless network on the printer, select the correct SSID and enter the WEP key according to the instructions.

It will then not connect.

Print the summary I have says that it passes all except:

No filtering = Fail

Connected = do not run

Signal strength = very weak (which is strange because it is about 10 feet away from wireless router).

Other networks detected matching your network name (SSID) = No.

Summary says:

Network Name (SSID) altnet (correct)

Address IP = not applicable

Configuration source = not applicable

Communication mode = Infrastructure

Authentication type = open system

= 64-bit WEP encryption

I have NOT activated the mac address filtering

Any ideas?

Your router appears to be a DSL modem-router.  Those who can be difficult to connect to.  In addition, WEP can be problematic and is no longer a measure of security.  WEP can be broken in 10 minutes approximately with the freeware on the internet.

We will do three things:

1. replace the WPA or WPA2 encryption.  You can make your own password.  Do 13 or more characters, numbers and uppercase and lowercase letters.

2 reset the default settings on your printer network (configuration > network area).

3. attach to the router in this way:

Sometimes the DSL providers have more control over the router like the printer.

-Unplug the phone line from the router
-Cut the power to the router, wait 30 seconds, then turn on the power.
-Go through the normal process of the printer connected to the device (wireless configuration wizard)
-Now to find the IP address of the printer (it should be on the self-test printout), type it in a browser.
-On this screen, you will find a tab management network, then on the left wireless, then 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 know what it is, set an IP address outside this range but not exceeding 254 (the last number of the address).
-Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
-Let the white gateway and DNS
-Finally, connect the telephone line, restart the router and the test.

  • HP Envy 4500: Printer connected to the router, but will not print wireless Macbook

    I want my wireless printer to work on my macbook, but I can't. I tried setting up on the HP utility to connect with the router as the mac and printer on but it does not work! It indicates that the download was successful, but the device was not reachable. I don't really know where to go from here and any help would be really appreciated. Thank you.

    Hey @miriamnimmo,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP, I would be happy to help you! I understand that you have the printer set up on your network, but the software says that the device is not accessible. Sometimes the IPv6 may interfere with the connection, and I suggest we disable that before anything else. On the fornt of the printer Panel, scroll down to and then select Wireless. In the wireless Menu, select Advanced settings, then IPv6 and.

    Now we are going to let the router and unplug the power cable (NOTE: do not reset the router), then do the same with the printer and shut down the computer. After a minute, plug in the router, wait to fully turn on, then plug the printer back in and wait for the wireless light become solid. Once the router and the printer are on, go ahead and re - turn on the computer. This will refresh the network connection.

    Printers configured in this mode are better develop a fixed TCP/IP address.  Your printer manual should tell you how to do this.  In general, there is a 'Settings' menu on the printer where it can be defined.  The IP address should usually have the first three digits than other devices on the subnet (for home networks it would be something like 192.168.1.x) and the final number should be unique and apart from the DHCP numbers range that your router would normally assign (see the manual of your router).

    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?

  • HP 4500 g510n-z-printer connected to the router but not responding do not

    Hello

    I got this printer (HP4500 G510n-z) for 3 years. This worked without any problem until I changed my router and installed a nas on the LAN Server.

    Now the printer is connected via WIFI to router and is perfectly installed on computers connected to the router. But it does not work. I used HP Print-Scan doctor and he finds the device, but it was not connected. I tried to connect to the printer IP of all computers, but I have not received any response (using ping, it doesn't have 75% of the package). On the router configuration page, the printer is connected to the usual IP and on connected computers the TCP - IP is configured correctly.

    I have tried everything and I managed only to reboot the router. But it did not last, each computer remains connected only until you restart the PC nex.

    Sorry if I'm not too clear, please don't exitate ask for more details. Thanks for your help!

    Replacement of your wireless router try now.

  • 4580 all-in One Printer connects to the router

    I get the following message when you use the HP printer installation disk that came with my 4580 all-in-one...

    The PC and the printer are connected to different networks.  They must be connected to the same network.  This can occur when you use the manufacturer's default network (SSID) name...

    She claims that my IP address do not match to the top on the same network, etc...

    Is it possible that I can change this manuelly?

    I have a Linksys WRT610n wireless network

    I'm not able to share the printer on the network as my household uses laptops...

    I saw this problem coming before in the forum, but have yet to see someone with a real solution. I spent 3 hours on the phone with HP tech and even with a remote office, he could not remedy the situation... it was several months ago and I tried to do, but I can't ignore it any longer.

    I'm on a WPA encryption... and isn't that although emissions of routwer in 2 widths of band... they have different names... casa big and jones...

    BUT! problem solved...

    Just by chance I have reset the printer wireless settings by default and re-established the connection settings using printing software provided

    Under the software disc menu, click 'Add a device', NOT 'reconfigure the network "... HP has done a terrible job in the description of these menu items when you hover over them... most people gloss over and click without even noticing the nuance of the topics...

    Anyway after doing this it worked... I think that the problem occurred before because that my printer kept a previous router settings and software HP could not reconfigure the IP address of printers...

    (1) Remove HP printer in the menu printer on your PC

    (2) connect your printer via the usb port

    (3) Insert the disk, then go to add DEVICE

    (4) follow the instuction to add a WIRELESS NETWORK

    (5) it should see the printer in the search...

    (6) the rest is self explanitory after all that...

    (7) add other computers using the disc after that because the IP address settings will be defined and all additional computers must do is to install the drivers and locate the printer on the network...

    All that and HP Tech couldn't do that for me, in 3 hours on the phone over the interfacing of remote desktop. So please add this to your ideas of troubleshooting for any future reference. Nevertheless, I love my products HP, we have 3 laptops and of course the printer.

    HP6700 printer: unable to connect to the router wireless D - Link DI-514 when the router Broadcast SSID is set to no. My MAC laptop and HP laptop both work with the set SSID on no. If I change the router Wireless SSID Broadcast is YES, then the printer HP6700 can connect to the wireless router. I set up the printer it saying that the SSID and password have been, the same as both of my laptops, but it connects ever, unless I have change the router to broadcast the SSID. Help!

    Have you tried to update the firmware on the DI-514?

    You can also try to set a static IP address on the printer, and then assign the printer to the list of DHCP static in the interface of the router.
    To give a static IP address to your 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. It's Google DNS. You can choose a different external DNS if you wish.
    -Click 'apply '.
    Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

    After that you remove and re - add the printer to your Mac.

    NOTE: Turn off Windows Firewall might make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers.
    You can see the following link to disable the Antivirus installed on your computer software.
     
    NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks

    My D255E an Aspire don't look for a printer connected to the USB port.  I've never used a printer on this computer before.  Windows 7 Starter will support a printer?

    It should be.  Try these steps and results reports:

    When you turn on and connect the printer via USB, shows tasks for animation in the system tray at the right end of the bar, click it and monitor driver installation.  If the pilot goes then printer must print and perhaps scanning of base via the Windows fax and scanning utility.  To find such a piece of utility type its name in the search box.

    If the driver does not load type of devices and printers in the box to start the search, open it, check if printer is already displayed, right-click on it to open the properties, and try to print a Test page. If it does not print right click on printer again to solve problems.

    If the printer is not listed visit Support downloads of the printer Web page to download and install the base driver.  If a wireless printer, you will need the complete package to do it fully implemented.  If you want to be able to scan from the top of the printer to the PC, then you also need the full package.  Keep track of the configuration screens when you install the software.

    If you still have problems after return the exact error with photos if possible.
