857 Wireless configuration help
Can someone help me with a wireless setup of an 857. I have done this in the past but can't remember the details. Basically I want very simple setup with WPA-PSK. The SDM interface is very confusing and I could do with the basic CLI for this.
Thanks
please see this link for the 857 initial configuration:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps380/products_installation_guide_chapter09186a0080471066.html
this is a step-by-step for SDM and CLI basic configuration.

Wireless configuration for HP OfficeJet 6500A plus All-In-One printer on Ubuntu 10.04
I have bought a HP OfficeJet 6500A plus All-In-One printer CN557A, which I want to use with ubuntu 10.04 64-bit as a wireless network printer.
Before i bought i checked compatibility on www.hplipopensource.org and www.openprinting.org, and all was in order.
The machine is autodetected and fully functional when connected with a usb cable, but i have not managed to get it to work as a wireless printer.
This is what I did:
I configured the printer on the wireless network (through the printer interface), and it connects. It prints out a "Wireless Network Test Report", and everything works. I can ping to its local ip adress, and access it through the browser. HP eprint also works.
I installed hplip 3.11.10 and dependencies manually. I did this because the default hplip in ubuntu 10.04 did not recognise the device.
I ran 'hp-check', which gave no errors or warnings:

Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the
HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies
are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro
supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball
has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode

Done.
I then ran 'sudo hp-setup', chose the device (which was detected), chose my wireless network, entered the wireless security key. On the configuration results dialog I get two messages:
"Your printer has been succesfully configured on the wireless network. You may now unplug the USB cable"
and
"The Ethernet cable is plugged in which will prevent you from connecting to a wireless network. To connect wirelessly, remove the cable and try again. (VSA000)"
There is no ethernet cable plugged in, so i can't remove it. I unplug the USB cable and click 'finish'. This makes the 'hp-setup'-dialog start over again, and the printer has not been installed.
In the terminal i have the following:

This question was solved.
View Solution.A friendly soul on ubuntuforums pointed out to me, that the wireless configuration is only necessary when the printer is NOT connected to a (W)LAN. So all I really had to do was to configure the printer in the CUPS administation page, and it worked. Problem solved. Silly me.

I have an acer laptop.I am using a belkin router.I also have an hp wireless printer.I had everything working right until I changed my internet & phone from cable to satillite to save money.I contacted belkin and they told me taht my problem wwas that I needed a more powerful router.I puchased one from them and I still cannot get my printer to connect.Please help. thank you
Hello @craftyone61,
I understand that after changing your internet and phone to a satellite connection your HP Deskjet 3520 e-All-in-One Printer stopped working over the network with your Windows computer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this wireless connectivity issue. Now, just so you are aware, any time you make a change on your network (network name, password, change of router, or changing service type: satellite) would require you to rerun the wireless setup for your printer to 'allow' your printer access to the network with the new changes present. If you did not run the wireless setup for your HP Deskjet after your service changed from cable to satellite, than you may not require that new router as the reason your printer was failing to work was because it did not have permission to access the new satellite network. To reconfigure the wireless on your printer and resolve this wireless connectivity issue please follow the steps below.
You will need a USB Cable for the wireless configuration. Do not plug in the USB Cable at this time. Should you have a USB Cable currently connected to your computer from your HP Deskjet, please disconnect that cable before proceeding.
Step 1: Remove Driver:
To ensure that there are not duplicates of your printer installed once we've completed the wireless setup of your Deskjet, I am going to have you remove your driver. This way we have a nice clean slate to work with.
Click on your Start menu
Select All Programs
Select the HP folder
Select the HP Deskjet
Select Uninstall
Please follow the onscreen prompts to complete the uninstall. Once the uninstall is complete please proceed to the next step.
Step 2: Install and Configure Wireless:
Please click here to download the latest drivers for your printer
Once the download is complete please follow the onscreen prompts to install your printer
When prompted choose the 'Wireless' connection method
You will now see a Wireless Setup Using a USB Connect screen. This screen will prompt you to connect your USB Cable. When prompted, please connect the USB Cable.
The wireless configuration will now take place
Once the wireless connection has been established you will be prompted to disconnect the USB Cable
You should now be able to use your printer wirelessly again.

Please respond to this post with the result of your wireless reconfiguration. Good luck!

Renewing wireless configuration
Told by Linksys support I needed to contact my hardware supplier to sort out "renewing my wireless configuration". I see on a internet search that this is a ball of blame that bounces between the wireless people an Microsoft with us users in the middle. Anyone know how to do this?. have wrt54g router and a musb54gsc network adaptor that refuses to recognize the signal at wireless computer. went through all the normal resetting procedures with phone support before they copped out.
ThanksI think you can verify if its computer by bringing some laptop and trying to connect to your wireless network, if that connects, router is working fine. Adapter or computer is having issue.
You can try to update the drivers of adapter, and see if that helps.
Just latest download drivers from www.linksys.com/download for correct model and version number.
Uninstall old drivers, restart the computer, and install new drivers. And then try to connect to your wireless network. -
B110 wireless configuration lost every printer turn off
Every time I turn off the printer, the printer lost the wireless configuration, so I have to reconfigure the wireless network access every turn on, is there a way to save the setup?
This question was solved.
View Solution.I believe this is a bug in the firmware. Make sure your firmware is up to date (Setup > Preferences > Update Product) and wait for a fix.
Until then, just leave the thing on. It goes to sleep and uses very little power (almost the same as when it is turned off).
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.
I am employed by HP -
Hi Guys, I have a question about wireless configuration files. I have set my wireless up and I am able to get it working. To do this I have to enter the iwconfig command manually.
iwconfig eth2 essid GillisLAN
When I do that and restart the network it works fine. I have read the forum and wiki and have tried many of the suggestions I have found in them. I must be missing something because I cannot get any of the config files to set things up for me. I have posted my the network portion of rc.conf below.

Also take a look here at the WPA supplicant section in the gentoo handbook. It includes helpful examples of different configurations which the Arch documentation doesn't.

Claer Wireless configuration - Laserjet CP1525nw
I had to replace a router in a home of a neighbor, they previously had the subject printer connected wirelessly. The new router forced me to change the passphrase for the wireless connection from what was previously used. The same SSID IS being used on the new router. I have tried all attempts to reset the network settings on the printer and whenever I do and then repeat the wireless setup, be it by WPS, PIN or CD-ROM and USB cable, in ALL cases the connection fails and in best cases says security passphrase is wrong or in worst cases that the printer does NOT see the CORRECT wireless network. The oddest part, apart from the total lack of a solution on the HP forums, or even in the manuals, is that the printer keeps picking up an odd-ball SSID, "HPCP1525-135f8d", mode is ad-hoc and the IP comes up with a "bogus" number which does NOT match any local network, 169.254.123.35. I have seen IP's like this before on PC NIC adapters which cannot connect, I believe this is some kind of internally assigned IP, not from any networking device. That combined with the bogus SSID, I am confident the printer is the source of this BAD configuration data. I have even tried to manually set the IP, using a reserved IP on the router which I set up just for this printer. Still nothing, it fails to connect and collects and saves this bad SSID and IP. How the h*ll do you get the NVRAM of the printer to drop this IP and FORGET that SSID? Do NOT tell me to re-run setup, I have tried multiple times, that may temporarily clear the data, but in re-running the setup it to again collects and SAVES the bad configuration data. My best guess, and another solution which cannot be found ANYWHERE, is how do you do a HARD factory reset on the printer??? I have just about had my fill of the user-friendliness of these HP interface and setup software!!!!! HELP!!!!
I found this on an earlier post and it works for the person. You have to first connect the printer with a ethernet cable to your network router as there should be ports available and then follow the instructions below: The No-Bull**bleep** Way To Setup Your HP CP1525nw For Wireless Printing Connect the printer to your router via ethernet cable.At this point you might need to navigate via the LCD and printer buttons to the Network setup. It’s a simple menu tree that you navigate via clicking the arrow buttons and clicking OK. Just connect via Ethernet and use DHCP. It should connect itself to your network.Once the printer connects to your network it will display its IP address on the printer’s built-in LCD screen.Enter that IP address into a web browser on a computer that is on the same network. After you click enter you will be presented with a web-based administration interface for your printer.Click on the “Networking” tab.Click on “Wireless Configuration” on the left-hand options.Status should be “ON”
Configuration Method should be “Join an existing network”.
Network Name should present a list of available networks. Click on yours.
Authentication should be set according to your networkClick APPLY and disconnect the wired connection to the router. The little wireless light on the front of the printer will start blinking as it connects to your router wirelessly. Once the light is solid the printer’s new IP address should be displayed on the built-in LCD display. You should now be able to connect using that ip address. -
I was told my wireless configuration was not correct and it is making my router slow. It is not giving me my true internet speed. I am suppose to be getting 50 mbs and I am only getting around 5 mbs. Can anyone give me some help in improving my wireless configuration. When I connect a cat 5 cable to the router it works just great, only when it is wireless does it slow down. Any help for this veteran would be appreciated.
Thanks

E2500 constant connectivity failures when secure wireless configured
My E2500 constantly drops connectivity (wired and wireless) when secure wireless is configured through the Linksys Connect software. The problem doesn't happen if the router is left unsecured.
Router Firmware: 3.0.00 build 6.
ISP: Comcast cable
Cable modem model UBEE D3.0
I use a mix of wired and wireless - the PCs are wired and the tablets and phones use wireless connections. The laptop uses wired at the desk and wireless elsewhere.
When I first got the router and used Linksys Connect to configure, the connection was moderately stable for about a week, then started dropping frequently. Recycling the modem and resetting the router to factory defaults stabilized the connection.
Today I re-ran the Linksys Connect software to configure secure wireless for my wireless devices, and the intermittent connectivity problem came back immediately - I couldn't get more than a minute or two online without the connection dropping out.
I don't like running without secured wireless connection, but I don't see an alternative.Wireless Configurations

Multiple ethernet network adaptors + MySQL/php5: configuration help needed
I would be grateful if someone could give me some advice on how to configure multiple ethernet adapters under OS X 10.5.6
I have set up my system to work nicely with two ethernet network adapters, each with its own fixed IP. This bit works just fine. The machine supports two separate servers - a mail server and the OS X Apache2 server. I have configured the mail server to only listen to one of the IPs, and the Apache2 server to listen to the other (via httpd.conf). The system also has MySQL and php5 installed / enabled, and these services are only used by the Apache2 server.
The problem I have is that when I start the machine, initially the php5 system cannot connect reliably to the MySQL database system. The fix I have found is to temporarily make the ethernet adapter connected to the mail server 'inactive'. While this is so, the php5/MySQL connection to Apache2 works. Curiously, once an initial connection between php5 and MySQL has been made, subsequently I can make the mail server's ethernet adapter active again without further problems.
I initially thought this might be due to 'service order' issues - but changing the service order (e.g. putting the Apache adapter 'above' the mail adapter in the service order does not help. The fix only works by making the mail adapter inactive temporarily.
I suspect that there is some configuration change I can make to clarify the setup I have. The MySQL and Apache installations only need to talk to the Apache server - but I am not sure how to record this configuration in the OS X system.
Thanks in advance for any assistance that you can provide.

Backing up and restoring wireless configurations
I am getting ready to blow away my iBook and do a fresh install of OS X. I use my iBook in a variety of different areas and have it setup on several WEP and WPA protected networks. Basically, I'd like to be able to backup my wireless configurations and restore them once I reinstall the OS.
I would assume it's the com.apple.airport.plist in you user Library>Preferences folder (network locations/preferences are user specific). Drag it to the desktop and restart Airport. Are your various locations there? No? Then that's it.

Need configuration help on producing dial tone
Hello Experts,
I have a Cisco 2921 router with VWIC3-2MFT-T1/E1 card. On this card we have T1-CAS digital line connected. We have been provided with a set of DID numbers. We have a requirement where, when we dial a DID, the router should provide a dial tone, and should allow the user to dial to extension numbers. Not sure if this is feasible. If at all possible, will need to some configuration help.
Thanks
ArabindaSure it's possible. What's the T1 connected to? The router will offer two-stage dialing (aka dial tone) when the incoming POTS dial-peer does not have the 'direct-inward-dial' command on it. The router will accept any input and search for an outbound dial-peer (or ephone-dn for locally registered DNs) to match. Be careful if the T1 is connected to the PSTN as this is a toll fraud risk. You need to use CoR to reign in what outbound dial-peers are available to it.

I want to setup two wireless configurations.
1. DHCP
2. Static
At work I have to wireless access points one is DHCP and static. I have tried setting up two different configurations, but they seem to conflict with each other at work/home. Users report that they cannot connect to those two automatically. I then have to make one of them inactive I usually do that to the static because the employees can take home the MacBook Pros/Airs. I also make one inactive because, they reported having trouble connecting at home. Is there a way for both of them to exist "both active"? I cannot give the users admin right,so they cannot change the network settings.You've done quite a bit of troubleshooting and I don't have much to add, but I wonder what you intend to accomplish with the settings I've highlighted:
*Enabled default host* at: 192.168.1.253
*Enabled NAT Port Mapping Protocol*
iMac:
Configure IPv4: Using DHCP *with manual address*
IP Address: 192.168.1.253
Try un-checking that "enable default host", and don't specify a manual IP address for your iMac unless you have a good reason.
I would suggest you configure the iMac the same way as your MBP:
MacBook Pros:
Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
