Hello. I have a Dell Dimension 2400 desktop computer and bought a 50M USB WiFi Wireless LAN 802.11 n/g/b adapter so that I could move my desk in another room and a wireless connection.

I can connect to the local network, but not to the internet
Why in an internet connection, I can connect to the Local network, but not to the Internet.
I have valid IP address and configuration is good.I recommend you read some threads here in the forum about similar issues.
If this problem occurs using the WiFi network, then check if you can use the connection to the local network.
Using the WiFi network, you must check if the common WLan parameters are favourable;
Check if the encryption key is right; turn off filtering by mac address, check the TCP/IP protocol settings if it has been set to automatic, disable the firewall settings, rest you WLan router, check if you connected to the right SSID.Good bye

Wireless router / Internet problems
I am running Windows Vista Home Edition with Security Essentials. I can connect to my wireless router, but cannot get internet connectivity via Wireless. If I connect the cable to the port on the router, I get internet connectivity. Is there a firewall setting that could cause this problem?Hello
Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
obstacles in the path?Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon.
Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.
After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
manufacturer of system become your backup policies).Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
updated drivers.I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.How to disable automatic driver Installation in Windows Vista - drivers

Make sure you know the details of connection to your wireless router - SSID and password.
You lose connection when you do and have to redo your logon.

I connect a HP all in one Photosmart 5510 to an ATT Uverse wireless network. It says printer is connected and printer tests are all good.., but still when I try to print, I get an error message saying that cannot communicate with the printer, make sure that it is attached to the network?
I restarted services, restarted..., still the same case. It says its connected, but do not connect or print. Very frustrating...
What operating system?
If Windows, download and run this utility: http://h20180.www2.hp.com/apps/Nav?h_pagetype=s-926&h_lang=en&h_client=s-h-e17-1&h_keyword=dg-NDU&jumpid=ex_r4155/en/hho/ipg/forum/network_diag/

HP OfficeJet Pro 8600, connected to the local network but cannot print printer on the same local network.
Work tried fixing it but all attempts fail.
Firewall disabled.
Printer recognizes the router's LAN.
Was also pointed out that the port does not communicate, can not remove it; Cannot add another...
Printer does not print.
How can I fix?
Hi @AnnisMonadjem,
Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!
I understand that you are unable to print to your printer HP Officejet Pro 8600. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.
When you say 'LAN', are you referring to the network or you try to share the printer on the network?
How is the printer connected? (Ethernet/WiFi)
If you have noticed that the port is causing problems, please download and run the print and Scan doctor, it will be probably diagnose and fix the problem you are experiencing.
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)
HP has several Officejet Pro 8600 series.
What is the name and the product number of your printer? How can I find my model number or product number?
- Update the firmware of the printer.
- Don't hide the SSID (network name).
- What type of encryption are you helping? HP recommends WPA and WPA2.
- You have a double router broadband? Make sure that the two groups were not the same network name.
If the problem persists, you may encounter an IP address conflict. It's a good idea to assign the printer a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For example, some routers default DHCP is located between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200. So, I would use 192.168.0.232.
To assign the static IP address, use the following steps as a guide.
- Print a Page of Network Configuration menu of the printer front panel. Note the IP printer. IPV4 address
- Type the IP address in the browser to bring up the SAP.
- Choose the network tab, then wireless on the left side, and then select the IPv4 tab.
- Select Manual IP.
- Enter your IP address manual (192.168.0.232)
- Enter 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask, except if it is different.
- Enter the IP address of your router that sits on the Network Configuration Page) for the default gateway.
- Please, click on manual DNS server. For the preferred DNS Server Manual please enter 8.8.8.8 and the Alternate DNS Server Manual, please enter 8.8.4.4.
- Click on apply.
- Restart the router, the printer and the computer.
- Test printing and scanning.
If the problem persists, download and run this patch rollup: resolving printing issues in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2
- Try printing and scanning.
In addition, if you are still having problems try the steps in this guide, HP printers - "offline" Status Message printer (Windows 7).
Continue on, if the problem persists.
Important! Delete the temporary files and folders by using the disk cleanup utility

Connected to the local network, but can not use internet
I recently had problems with access to the internet after reinstalling windows 7. Before the reinstall worked very well.
I can connect to the local network without problem, and it shows that the internet is connected. Yet I can not access the internet. When I disconnect and reconnect, I get a few seconds of internet work before it stops working.
When a diagnosis in the network and sharing Center, I get the error "default gateway is not available" and occasionally "the connection between your access point, etc. and internet is broken"
Other computers and devices using the network are working properly, although there was a 'competitor IP address' error on another pc, which, after a reconnection, solved itself.

I am trying to set up my wireless printer, and the printer says its is connected to my wireless network, but I can't get my computer to print wireless if I disconnect my regular network and attach the direct wireless network name, which is different and stops my internet to work. How can I get my computer to recognize the printer on my regular wireless network?
Hi @lelg,
I understand that you want to configure the printer on the wireless network. I can help you with this.
Uninstall the printer software.
Uninstalling the printer software.
Restore the default settings of the printer.
Go to Configuration, restore the default values.
Cycle power to the router and the computer.
Run the installer on the printer wireless.
Go to the configuration, Setup, menu wireless network, Wireless Setup Wizard.
Print a configuration page to get the IP address of the printer.
Select the method.
If you have a valid IP address for the printer, then try and access the Web built-in to the printer server. Type the IP address in the address bar of your web browser. (Internet Explorer)
If it loads the page from the network printer then the printer is on the network.
Download, save, and then run the installation of the software. Color HP LaserJet Pro 200 pilot M276nw MFPS.
Select your operating system, click Next and click on the software to download and install.
Test the printer.
What operating system do you use? How to find the Windows Edition and the Version on your computer.
Please provide detailed results if you're still having problems.
Good day!
Thank you. -
