Should I have the new firmware on my router WRT16N?

I'm trying to install a HP Photosmart 7515 eAll-in-one printer.  OK works in "captive" USB mode, as a single computer printer only.  It will not install as a wi - fi device, likely reason being my router (wireless) settings, according to the sheet of the printer wireless network Test results.  I suspect that the firmware on this subject (3.0.02) is obsolete.  What is the latest version of the firmware for the WRT160N?  And if this isn't the problem, is there any suggestions on how I should proceed, so that the printer can be used to its maximum capacity?

Thank you, ScarletJamie.  At least this part of my router issue is resolved.

  • Don't I have the latest Firmware for WRT110?

    I just bought and installed the WRT110 and I was wondering if I have the latest firmware. I show the version 1.0.04)is build 10 in routers administration page.

    Also, I would like to know if I have security measures in place for my network. I am 'new' for wireless routers, but I used a wired Linksys router with two computers on the network. Now my wife has added his MacBook to the mix, so I thought I would try a wireless router. The other two systems will remain wired for now.

    So far I have:

    Compatible WPA - 2

    SPI enabled

    NAT enabled

    MAC enabled filtering and only authorized wireless computers MAC address

    Changed default SSID

    Default password changed

    What else should I consider for this set - up?

    Thank you

    You should not loacte the router near the LCD monitor also or other computer equipment or speakers...

    To disable the SSID broadcast-

    Open an Internet Explorer browser on your computer (desktop) wired page. In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press ENTER... Let the empty user name & password use admin lowercase...
    Click the Wireless tab, select Disable SSID broadcast...

    Disabling the SSID broadcast prevents your network to appear in the list of available wireless networks, but it is still present...

    Note that disabling SSID broadcast is one of the many techniques of tightening of security on a Wi - Fi network. This technique is not 100% effective, because hackers can still detect the SSID sniffing different messages in the Wi - Fi Protocol. Yet, using techniques as the disable broadcast SSID makes it more likely that any intruder it will move your home network who seek easier targets elsewhere.

  • I don't have the new Firefox button

    I've updated our pc XP to Firefox and I don't have the new Firefox button - I still have the old file - menu Edit etc at the top. The tabs etc. have all changed - it's just the button which has not appeared.
    My husband has another XP user on the same pc, and it doesn't have the button again, oddly enough (since, presumably, we are both running the same software!).

    The Firefox button is only a default feature for Windows Vista and 7. To make the button Firefox on Windows XP, go to:

    View > toolbars and UNCHECK the menu bar. Then the Firefox button should appear. Please read this article for more details:

  • The new Firmware...

    Well... I downloaded the new firmware three times and it still doesn't work. What is happening is: I click on the icon (I put it on my desk), he asked me "do you want to run this file? I click on "Run" and the box that opens goes and nothing happens after that. He worked on the first download with my mp3 player. I have a Sansa clip and I had no problems with it until this week. What happened was: I turned it on and it works normally, it seemed, I chose my song, I wanted to listen to and carried on with what I was doing and then it off suddenly. I know that the battery was not dead because I had loaded this day here so I walk back and the Database "Refresh" came so I just went back for the song I was listening to - AND THE IT TURNS OFF AGAIN. So I try to turn it on, it going off, turn it on, it turns off. Finally, it no longer lights. Can I go online to do some troubleshooting to see what the problem was and I've saw that Firmware was supposed to help-so I did a security scan to make sure it was safe for my computer and started to download. As I said, the first time, I downloaded the software that it worked very well. But he said that I had to clear 6 MB of free space on my camera - I did everything what I deleted still shows up on my device so that I could not download the firmware, then I just gave up with it because I've had enough with it does not properly. Sansa never gave no problems so far. Is this the end for my mp3 player? I need to know if I can invest in something else.    Thank you.

    The original video had problems with bad Soldered joints on the battery terminal wires. Sorry to say, this is what it looks like happened to yours. If you are adventurous and handy with a soldering tip fine iron (or know someone who is) you can probably fix it.

    You can Google "dismantling the Sansa Clip" and find all kinds of Youtube videos and other pictograms on the way to get it out without damaging it and put it back together. Otherwise, I fear that it is ruined; transfer the files out of it (as long as it always connects to the computer) and get a new player, maybe a Clip + or Zip if you like the small size and as a bonus, these new players have a SC slot to expand memory.

  • Please refers to the path of the new firmware

    This message keeps poping up ("Please designate the path of the new firmware") when I try to update the firmware on my router WRT110 wireless, even if I used the button BROWSE to select the new .bin firmware file.

    Someone has an idea to solve this problem?

    Have you tried another browser to update the firmware? How about you try it on another computer? If the two do not work, try to power cycle the router (unplug the power for two seconds) then once the power led is solid, try the update again. If the update will still not proceed, reset the router by pressing the reset button on it by using a PIN or a paper clip for 30 seconds. It shut down again for another couple of seconds. Once the power led is solid, try the update again.

  • I have the new Windows 8 and cannot sync my Ipod Nano

    I have the new Windows 8 and cannot sync my Ipod Nano is anyone know how to do this?

    When I try to sync my ipod nano with my new system of Windows 8, I get a notice of the WDF_violation and the sad face on a blue screen, then my computer needs to be restarted.  I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled, so I have the latest version on my machine.  However, which did not help.  ITunes recognizes my nano and gives me an indication that it's sync... but new music I bought is not on the nano, nor is the updates of my specific playlists.

    Clearly, it's a matter of Microsoft/Windows as my nano worked perfectly last week when I was on my old computer (Vista).

    If this isn't an issue which is, or has been processed by Microsoft, it should be.  If my nano and my Windows 8 cannot talk to each other which is not acceptable.

  • I don't have the new (general) Firefox button.

    Ahmed El-Meadawy

    Your new Firefox 4 is impressive. I went through all the educational videos that you offer. My problem is that after having downloaded the new Firefox 4, I can not find Firefox (menu) button that is supposed to include all of the options menu (file, publishing, display,... and help). I would like to have the new Firefox (general menu button) instead of all these old version next to the other menu items.

    My best regards,

    Hi, Ahmed.
    Go to the view menu, choose "Toolbars", find the "Menu bar" option and click on it to uncheck it. This will give you the new menu button all-in-one.
    (Note: this only works on Windows).

    Hope that helps,

  • I have the new apple TV, and he had the new user interface.  Friday he returned to the old version of apple TV user interface.  Anyone know why this could have happened

    This is a silly question, but I'm not too tech savvy.  I don't know I have changed something somewhere.  I have the new Apple TV, and he had the new user interface, which means that the appearance of the applications using the applications, example, scroll down to Netflix, Netflix, etc. to research.  This weekend he returned to the UI I've seen on my old Apple TV. Does anyone know why this could have happened and how I me the new interface to return?  I did a reset to the original values Apple TV and it did not work.  The tvOS is 9.1 (13U85).

    How to use a flash drive.  Should I have the software?

    How to use a flash drive.  Should I have the software?

    Normally, flashdrivers are plug-and-play. no need to install any additional drivers or software

    Connect a different flash for the same pc driver and check if it works? If it works and as your first one does not work, connect the first condition in another pc audit... If it still not detected that you may need to contact the seller

    If none of your flashdrivers are detected by your pc try below repairs while the flashdriver is plugged
