Problems connecting my computer to my wireless network when Photosmart C4780 is connected

Hello

I recently bought a new printer Photosmart C4780 wireless. It works fine via USB, but I seem to have problems when I try to set up with my router.

Here's what happens:

First of all, I run the Setup on the CD supplied with the printer (while connected wireless to my network).  I am going through the different steps and after Setup finds my network settings to give to the printer. After that, the Setup program tries to find the printer on the network.  It goes very well for about 4 or 5 seconds while the printer connects to my wireless... but then, once the printer connects, my computer disconnects causing an error Setup can not communicate with the printer because I'm not connected to a network.

What is going on?

If anyone can solve this problem for me, that would be amazing and be a great help!

Chuck

I'm sorry to say this but there are problems between SMC routers and HP printers.

Search this forum MUCH info on the subject.

  • Problem of not seeing list drop-down connection to the wireless network when checking connections network - pc windows 7.

    Problem of not seeing list drop-down connection to the wireless network when checking connections network - pc windows 7.

    I just installed a Belkin modem-router - which went well. Can I connect WiFi gadgets etc. I can also connect to the internet via a network cable to my pc. I also installed a belkin usb wireless adapter and in Device Manager, says it is enabled and works.

    My problem is, I have no way of choice get a WiFi PC to display in the list (from the notification area) and cannot get the pc to give me options to create a wi - fi connection. The more I get to try to do that is "unexpected error"!

    If someone could help on this - I would be very grateful

    Good news - update of my ongoing saga with this Belkin modem/router.

    Got the pc to see wi - fi now. It turned out to be the Zone Alarm! As the router has a firewall, I uninstalled Zone Alarm completely. Also, I went into the properties of belkin usb and checked it was the most recent drivers, it does not so I installed them.

    So far so good

    Thanks for the help

  • my laptop will not find my wireless network when I'm trying to relog. I then reboot the computer to make it work

    I can be on my laptop and the internet works fine, but if I close my laptop and come back, sometimes it will not open a session. When I try to connect to a wireless network, it will appear not all networks at all and I live in a condo and I usually pick mine as well as a dozen other choices. The laptop won't restart when I try to shut down or restart, it just goes in the part of the judgment of the process, but goes no further. I have to manually hold the power button to shut down the computer.

    Hello

    Maybe this can help.

    Assuming that the signal is strong, and that there is no noise in the electrical environment (http://www.ezlan.net/wbars.html ).

    Uncheck the box to the NIC of energy economy (I.e., do not leave the card save energy).

    There may be some variations on where is the energy saving setting.

    Here are a few examples, YMMV, look around your systems.

  • Internet problems with a computer Windows 7 wireless

    Hello. My problem is that I have an ACER with Windows 7 computer and I've had it for awhile (about a year or more). He never gave me no internet problem until a few days ago, when he started having connection problems. My computer has been without internet since two and a half days. Whenever I try to look for the problem, he tells me that the computer is connected to the router, but that router is not connected to the internet. I tried to restart the modem and the router several times without success. The thing is that, while my computer does not have internet, my cell phone and the computer of my partner (for laptop with Windows 7) do not seem have a problem using the same network of the internet, which makes me believe that the problem is in my computer.

    I have a SB5101U of Motorola SURFBoard Cable Modem and a NETGEAR RangeMax 150 wireless router.

    My computer uses an Atheros AR5B95 wireless network card. (My partner runs Realtek RTL8188CE wireless adapter)

    Would it be a virus or something? Because I've scanned my computer with my antivirus to find something wrong, but it does not yet detect. Please help me and thanks a lot for any help or advice you can give me.

    You have McAfee?  If so, see this "criticism" McAfee reviews -

    Some customers may experience a loss of network connectivity and/or errors in McAfee Security Center after a recent update

    You should make the fix McAfee, if necessary. There are corresponding communications for their enterprise products.

    I had to run their removal of McAfee Development tool a few times before and it caused a problem with the license if the PC was not connected to the internet during the abduction. Due cat of McAfee support reset their files in order to allow the relocation-reactivation. Here is their link cat - McAfee - media contains the link to the cat

    I got McAfee, but the connection has started working again on its own so I thought I was clear of problems. However, when I checked it says he was doing routine checks the updates in vain when I told it to do a manually. So stick with McAfee you don't follow their procedure of fix would have upgraded my PC at risk by not updated and, like other McAfee ads have since explained, the application did not refer to its database of threats correctly [and this could explain part of the variability of the symptoms of failure but all involved loss of internet connection]. Actually, I removed McAfee then installed Microsoft Security Essentials rather & my answer IE is faster I knew it [even though I had the Add-ons McAfee disabled for centuries].

  • MacMini don't auto connect to the preferred wireless network when the router reboots

    My MacMini is located to join my favorite wifi network. Where I stay, there is usually a power failure close to a minute or two during the day.

    My setup is such that my MacMini running 24 x 7 with a backup uninterruptible but my router (AirPort Express) turns off during the power outage. When the router goes off, my Mac disconnects from the network which should, but now when my router turns, the MacMini reconnect to the preferred network.

    It shows the network preferred list, and when I manually click on this subject, it reconnects immediately without asking for password. But this will not happen automatically.

    If I restart my MacMini it reconnects very well. The problem occurs only when my MacMini is but my router restarts.

    To reproduce this problem on your side, just turn off your router and once your Mac disconnects from the network back on the router. See if your mac reconnects to your wifi fine.

    Any solution or advice for this problem?

    Thank you.

    Please test after taking each of the steps that you have not already tried it. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.

    1. If possible, test at another network, such as a public access point or hotspot created by a mobile phone. Some Wi - Fi routers are not fully compatible with Apple devices. More specifically, the security mode for the network, as shown in the network preferences window, should be 2 personal WPA or WPA 2 Enterprise. If the router doesn't support either of these modes, it should be replaced with another.

    2. make sure that the network is on the list of favorites by following these instructions. It is important to read the article, as it is the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any step, the problem cannot be resolved. Make sure that the box marked

    Remember this computer has joined the network

    is checked.

    3 follow the instructions in this article to support.

    4. reset the PRAM.

    5. take note of all your parameters of connection Wi - Fi in the network preferences pane, then remove the connection in the connection list and re-create it with the same settings. This by clicking on the icon of the lowest sign from the list of connection, select Wi - Fi as the interface in the form that opens. Select join the other network in the network name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when you are prompted, and then save it in the keychain.

    6. in the menu location at the top of the network preferences window, select Edit locations. A sheet will fall. Click on the plus sign to create a new location. Give it the name of your choice. In the new location, set up the Wi - Fi service with the same settings that you used before. Click on apply and test.

    7. run the Keychain Access application. Find and remove all the network password AirPort elements that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.

    8 turn off the Bluetoothand the test.

    9. reset the system management controller.

    10. This step should not be necessary, but he has been advised by the Apple Support in some cases, apparently as a solution for a bug. Open the energy saving pane in system preferences. If necessary, click the lock icon in the lower left corner to unlock the settings. When prompted, enter your administrator login password.

    Select the Power Adapter tab and uncheck the boxes marked

    Continued access to the Wi - Fi network

    and

  • Photosmart C4780: Impossible to reconfigure the network on Photosmart C4780

    When the upgrade of our wireless home network, our router has been updated, so I need to go to a re - configure our printer for the new network SSID and password only I can't.

    WPS does not work, use the push button or the PIN method.

    If I plug the printer via the USB port, using the HP configuration utility (System Preferences > print and fax > utility > Open Printer Utility > devices > new device setup) the printer is recognized, but the Wizard allow me to advance to the configuration of the network directly - settings I get a message telling me that "The selected device is already Set Up.

    I tried the printer hard reset, I downloaded the drivers directly, I tried searching for SSID the printer (doesn't seem to be a radio) and I factory reset the printer wireless settings.

    I'm puzzled.

    Take a look at the attached screenshots - I'd love to hear that you'e got a solution for me. I wouldn't have to buy a new printer.

    Legend: If only I could go to these points on the left...

    ... But I can not...

    Please provide detailed information gabeuscorpus.

    That the software you are trying to use to set up the printer is for an older Mac.

    I would uninstall the old software. Yosemite drivers are installed by the Apple updates and the HP utility must not have been installed. Monofunctional and HP - uninstalling the software of the printer multifunction printers.

    Set up the ad-hoc connection has nothing to do with the router. We use the Adhoc to test the operation of the equipment and the operating system. Because you see not the printer in the list to connect to, we have to solve the equipment before attempting to reconfigure the printer to the router.

    Run the wireless network on the printer Test.

    Press the Scan button (it also the wireless menu button)
    Select wireless settings
    Select the wireless network running Test.

    Check next wireless on watch Pass and work wireless shows Pass.

    Let me know.

    I'll send you another step to try in a private message.
    In the forum next to your handle name simply click on the envelope to see.

    I would like to know what the results are.
