• C4780 cannot find the wireless router

  I have a new iMac and old Toshiba that is running Windows XP and you use a Netgear wireless router.  When I got to the printer, it worked fine on the wireless network.  Bought a new router that I couldn't work with the Mac and the PC so I returned to my original router.  Now, the printer does not work as a wireless printer.  Summaries of diagnosis indicates that the printer cannot find the wireless router and fails under "Network Name (SSID) Found."  On the Network Setup page, my network is listed as a network discovered by the printer.  I guess there is a simple solution and hope to find the answers here.

  Thank you very much!

  Some printers C4780 left the factory with a default misconfiguration.  This could be the reason why you can not see the hpsetup network.  Here is an updated set of instructions for manually adding the C4780 to a Mac:

  Part 1 - Get the printer in Ad-Hoc Mode Wireless

  (1) turn on the printer.

  (2) display the printer has six keys; three on the left (top-left, middle left, below on the left) and three on the right (top-right, centre-right, bottom-right).  Press and release the following touch buttons in order:

  top left,

  bottom-left,

  top left,

  top left.

  (3) you should see the internal menu of printers.  Press the right button down to select 'Service Menu'.  Press OK (lower-left).

  4) press the lower button right until you see "Reset Menu".  Press OK (lower-left).

  5) press the lower button right until you see "half full".  Press OK (lower-left).

  (6) after a few seconds, the printer turns off.  Press the power button to turn on the printer.  It is now reset with the correct default network settings.

  (7) turn on the radio:

  Press the Scan button to get the wireless settings

  Select wireless Menu

  Select wireless settings

  Select Enable Wireless to turn on the radio.

  Part 2 - run the Wireless Setup Wizard

  The printer has now created an ad - hoc network called hpsetup.  To connect to this network on your Mac.

  Check the connection to the printer by opening the printer's internal web page.  You can do this by opening Safari, select bookmarks then ShowAll bookmarks.  On the left pane of Safari, select Hello and on the right, you should see your printer listed.  Double-click your printer and Safari should display the printer's internal web page.

  The printer Web page, select the network tab, and then select Wireless (802.11).  Now press Start the wizard to launch the wireless configuration wizard.

  When the wizard is finished, your computer unplug the printer's ad - hoc network as the printer reconfigures itself to connect to your network home.

  Reconnect your computer to your home network.  Verify that you can connect to the printer at the opening of its internal web page again once we were doing before.

  Finally, install the printer SW.  Since you have Snow Leopard, you don't need the CD that came with the printer.  Instead, open the Print & Fax under System Preferences applet and press the [+] button.  Highlight your printer and click Add.

  HM, you will need to do some research! What was the last you´ve installed applications? Installed new drivers/tools/software on your computer?
  If not you already installed the latest drivers for the chip wireless for your laptop? If not already done, then try it and Don t forget to update BIOS. :)

  If anything brought success then just to give a few comments. :)

  Hi Virginia,

  Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

  After the description of the problem, I understand that you can not connect to a wireless network on windows vista computer.

  I appreciate your efforts on this issue, however no need for you to worry we are here to help and guide you in the right direction.

  Help me with the information below.

  -Don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?

  I suggest you to disable temporarily security software and then check if you are able to connect.

  Method 1

  You can also temporarily disable the security software and check if it works.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

  If disabling the security software solves the problem, then contact the manufacturer of the specific security software to fix the problem.

  Important: These steps may increase your security risk. These steps may also make the computer or the network more vulnerable to attack from malicious users or malicious software such as viruses. We recommend the process that this article describes to enable programs to operate as they are designed for, or to implement specific program features. Before you make these changes, we recommend that you evaluate the risks that are associated with implementing this process in your particular environment. If you decide to implement this process, take additional measures to protect the system. We recommend that you use this process only if you really need this process.

  Method 2

  Reset the router and see if that helps.

  Note: to help you reset the router, you can consult the manual that came with the router or the router contact manufacturer.

  Hi Trisha,

  Many routers need firmware updates to work with Windows 7. Maybe it's the issue.

  Please answer these questions:

  1. What is the brand and model of the router?
  2. If it works much earlier?
  3. Any changes made to the computer before the show?
  4. What is the exact error message received when you try to connect to the router?

• I bought a Sony BDP - S185 connect Netflix Blu - ray player. I can't connect to the wireless router. Why?

  I just bought the blu - ray BDP S-185 drive so that I can access the internet (netflixetc.) on my new samsung tv. I tried to connect to my wireless router, but repeat me my connection type iswired and the connection has failed. Can I connect this player to a wireless router or should it be connected to the router? Difficult because the router is in the basement and the television on the third floor. Can I use the separator on phonejack (existing in the 3rd and.) and connect the two phone and blu ray player or do I need a netgear typedevice to connect this player? Thank you in anvance understand help. Sorry, it's so rambled butI am very confused here!

  Hi Robert,.

  Welcome to the community of Sony!

  This Blu - ray player is the BIV (Internet Video base) base model and does not support the wireless Internet connection. I suggest that you use the Ethernet LAN cable to connect the player to your router/modem.

  Thank you for your message.

• When I try to connect to the wireless router, it asks you the password I put it and he then asked again and will not accept the password. all other computers (without windows 7) connect correctly.

  My new computer has windows 7 when I try to connect it to my router it ask the password, then he asks the network password I put in the same password and it does not accept it. I spent ove an hour on the phone with a very helpful and confused expert to the Virgin. He tells me that the password only I need to communicate with the router is the main. We tried a lot of things all very technical and finally he gave up. Other computers with vista on connect very well with no problems at all.

  The network is fine and all the settings are fine. Occasionally, it connects via a home network but then it stops. When I try to communicate with the printer wireless signal stops and starts.

  I don't hold much hope of a response that experts were left very confused by this first abandoned after 45 minutes and the second lastered over an hour are totally flumaxed and blame windows 7

  But everyone told me that windows 7 was supposed to be the best

• Photosmart C4780 "cannot find the wireless router.

  OK so apparently I'm not as tech savvy as I like to think of myself. I just got a used C4780 and spent 12 hours trying to figure how to set up so that I can print wireless. I had zero luck with that.

  I read that the WPS connection method is more easy then I tried that first. After a few failed attempts, I tried to download the software for Windows 8 (as the disc that comes with it only goes to to Windows 7). I got the same error message 4 times (something Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime error), so I then tried the method of the PIN code. After several settings (with the help of my brother on the phone, so I don't really remember what I did unfortunately) just as many failures to connect and I gave up this process.  I printed the 'Network Configuration' Page and the 'wireless network Test report", but I don't have much of a clue as to what it now means. I don't understand what I am doing wrong or what I could do different. The thing that really stumps me, is that the test report said that the printer can't find my router, but at the bottom of the Configuration Page, it lists my wireless network...

  USEFUL/IMPORTANT INFO:

  -HP Photosmart C4780

  -Lenovo all-in-One 8.1 Windows 64 bit

  -router made by ARRIS and provided by my ISP (CableONE)

  -J' installed all the updates that are available for Windows

  -J' restarted the printer, computer, router AND several times

  -my wireless router is in another room, but not more than perhaps 20 feet away

  Side note: I have also a mini iPad... just throw it out there in case it might be a better tool to put up with... If you need to know something more to help me let me know! Thank you for cause in advance that I'm going stir crazy trying to figure this!

  "Cable telephone Service is supported only on Arris modems rented your office of a cable or bought by http://yourbroadbandstore.com/solutions/cableone/."

  Copy + paste directly from their Web site.

  It's OK... you're using their product.  they can always put the Bridge mode.  Call them and tell them that you want to use your OWN router and they put it in Bridge mode.

  EDIT - Bridge mode just turns off the router part and use it as a modem only.

• Connection to the wireless router

  I currently have intermittent connection problems with my router with my wireless Vista adapter.

  Sometimes, either after booting, or the disconnection of a single account and connection on Vista another account; I can not connect. Generally, the error is expressed as security key is incorrect. However, I know that the phrase/key is correct.

  Sometimes, the adapter is disconnected and then re - set it solves the problem, while other times I had to delete and re-create the profile Wireless under the wireless network connection control panel. However most of the time I have to use to turn off the router and turned on again. It almost always does, the connection works again.

  Also, whenever a while the internet connection stops, usually when I just clicked on a web link.

  Do you know what could be the problem?

  Some journal entries you posted State "unknown user name or bad password".  This is the type of connection 2 which are attempts to connect to your PC locally (i.e. just started).  You also said earlier that when you are prompted for a security key to connect to your router, it sometimes rejects because the passkey is incorrect.  One thing that comes to mind is that you have a key that is stick on your keyboard, which is originally evil type your logon password and security key.

  Open Notepad on your computer and simply type anything.  Type your passwords and the security key passes a number of times and see if any characters repeat or not be typed at all.  If this is a Wireless keyboard, try replacing the batteries, otherwise a can of compressed air which will usually clear upward.

  If you constantly have to power cycle your router or disconnect your Wireless adapter to get a connection, then you have a hardware problem.  One of the errors you listed was "service temporarily stopped publishing because of a power event".  What happened when the error has been written?  Check with the manufacturer of these devices to see if they work properly.

  Are you able to connect to the router with an ethernet cable access to the internet without problem?

• B210A Photosmart - server connection error and does not connect to the wireless router

  I have problems setting up and to connect my router to my new printer b210A. Everything goes well with the initial configuration, and when asked to connect to the network at the start, it works. Then he said that the printer requires updates, downloads of updates, reboots, asks me if I want to activate eprint and as soon as I said 'Ok', I get a "the server connection error" and it is then no longer connected to the network. When I get out of the "server connection error" screen and attempt to reconnect to the network, he says 'Success', prints a Test report wireless, but never connects.

  It's the 2nd printer that I have had in a week, given that the person of HP online chatting told me my first printer had problems of "hardware", after experiencing the same problems and I'll be recommended. So - I did, and now I'm running into the same issues. The number of 800 was NO HELP - after recommended I have unplug and reconnect, then telling me there were server errors (when the printer was not connected to the network).

  We will set an IP address of the printer with a special focus on DNS domains:

  -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). You can find the beach DHCP from the router using its internal settings page or in its manual. Use the CD that came with your router or type the IP address of the router (ends para.1) in a browser.
  -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

  -For the first DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for the second use.
  -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.

• Laptop (windows 7) doesn't recognize computer (XP) desktop network, but connects to the wireless router

  I have two computers (desktop and laptop), a plug-and-play printer connected to the desktop computer and a wireless router.  My laptop was connected to the printer via a family group on the network connection.  I've recently upgraded the OS on my laptop from Vista to Windows 7 and now my phone does not even recognize the MSHOME network which was initially established.  I am able to connect to internet via wireless router (Verizon MIA 424 - WR... or something like that) but I can not connect to desktop files, devices on it and above all terribly printer.  What's weird, this is my office always recognizes my laptop and can even connect to my laptop from my desktop.  The network is established by the office which is running XP.  Not sure if this helps, but I remember when I set the laptop computer connection / original printer, I had to do a port mapping step funky.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  FYI, I did everything suggested by microsoft windows help.
