Can't connect HP B109n-z to R7000 router.

Hi,
I am having difficulty connecting my wireless printer up to my router.
I have a nighthawk R7000 router and a HP photosmart B109n-z printer.
Some time ago, for no reason whatsoever, my printer droppped out the connection and I can't seem to connect wirelessly anymore.
The only option I have on the printer to connect to my wireless network is by WPS but the printer keeps sending up error messages saying wireless error.
Anybody help?
Thanks!

Hare reset the router back to factory defaults.  Reconfigure the router back to your settings but this time remove all security off the router temporarily.    Now try to connect to your unsecured SSID.  Are you successful?  If yes, go back and add WPA2-AES with a simply password and try now.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.

I worked for HP but now I'm retired!

  • Can i connect my time capsule with my router as a bridge ?

    can i connect my time capsule with my router as a bridge ?

    I am a bit lost .. did you work this out?? You are running a second thread.. and answered it with this question.
    The TC can be bridged.. plug it into the main router by ethernet and run it in bridge mode.. that is router bridge.
    Do you mean wireless bridge??
    If you mean wireless bridge the answer is maybe but unlikely.
    If you setup the TC to join a wireless network.. it becomes a dumb client not a bridge.
    So to get it to wireless bridge you need to use another apple router.. that is the only way to get them to work.
    If you want specifics ask specific questions.

  • Can you connect an iMac to a Lynksys router without an airport express

    can you connect an iMac to a Lynksys router without an airport express or base? I tried running it from cable>modem> wireless router and it doesn't sling to the iMac. The airport card in the Mac does seem to be on, and there is a network connection set up. It's an intel iMac7,1. I'm not familiar with Mac, I'm trying to help out a friend.
    At my house I have the same configuration going  from my PC to an old Mac laptop and it works fine.
    I think my friend had her wifi network set up properly, or it wouldn't be showing in the list of networks when I check.
    the router is a Lynksys WRT160N V3.
    Oh, and if I do run her computer trying to use the wireless, I don't get an internet connection at all. I have to have it hardwired straight to the modem.
    Sorry I've asked this twice, but I haven't had any luck. I must just not know where to find things on the Mac. I did try other places in forum before posting again.
    Any ideas? Thanks

    We don't know a thing about your iMac or what version of OS X it's running so it's very difficult to help you. Please note that information and also please complete your profile, then that infomation will be listed when you post in your next thread. You can complete your profile by clicking Your Stuff in the upper right of this page then click Profile and fill in the pertinent information.

    If you mean does the network appear on the Mac when I look for it, then yes.
    I think my friend had her wifi network set up properly, or it wouldn't be showing in the list of networks when I check.
    the router is a Lynksys WRT160N V3.
    I don't think she has the security code so I can check what's actually hooked up (the network name on screen at least appears to be locked). She's had the computer out to the shop and back recently and has never even run anything off the wireless.
    I have a feeling I'm going to have to call her cable provider to sort it out. I'm hoping to avoid that. I don't know Mac at all. I could troubleshoot on my PC.
    Ultimately, I want to be able to hook a Roku box to her TV to run Netflix.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Can't connect PB G4 to linksys wireless router when 64bit is established

    Hello-
    I have my PB G4 connected (wirelessly) to a linksys wireless router WRTP54G. If I don't have security set on the router, the PB connects. Once I add the security (64bit) and enter the password, the message "There was an error joining the AirPort network” comes up and I can’t connect. I've connected my other laptop to the network (a PC).
    Any ideas on how to fix this? Thank you in advance.

    Does your router support any other form of encryption? See if this KB article makes any sense to you.
    AirPort: Joining an encrypted wireless network
    Personally, I have a sneaky suspicion it has to do with the way your ASCII/hexadecimal password is or isn't being converted to something recognisable by the router. I use a Linksys router at home with a hexadecimal password generated from an ASCII passphrase, and that seems to work fine.

  • Can't connect to internet wirelessly with WRT120N router

    ok, it's nearly 4am and i've been trouble shooting this problem since 11pm... love the technology, but it completely evil...
    let me start off by saying i'm not too tech savy. took a couple computer courses in high school and thought it was my passion but they got way above my head in college, so i settled for art (those classes are much easier to pass as long as you draw your homerwork, don't blow up your sculpture etc etc)
    anywho, i bought a brand new computer today since i play wow and my old computer was nearing on a decade old and had nearly a dozen manufactury resets from all the viruses from downloaded music. i don't know the make of the new computer (just spent like five minutes looking over the box and it doesn't seem to say) and i literally walked into best buy and walked right up to the computer department store head and said, "which computer should i buy to play wow on for less than $600." he thought for like thirty seconds and pointed to an ASUS and i immediately bought it. took it home, watched tv for a couple hours, then went to set it up since i had a raid in like two hours, thinking, "brand new computer, nothing's gonna go wrong!..." 
    well it did. my router gives me grief from time to time, so i spent the first hour unplugging, resetting, refreshing (i think that's what the button by the blue lights that has the circling arrows does) and nothing. so then off to the interweb since... oh! this might be important! the one computer i'm on now that has a hardwired connection is running normally, not great, normally. and i just checked my mom's ipad, it's on the network too. my phone, a samsung galaxy s 4 had been connected since i had it, and decided to stop connecting when at least until i noticed i couldn't connect my new desktop and my gf's phone, an iphone 4 wouldn't connect either... in total, i think there's one wired desktop connection, my fail wireless desktop connection, wireless laptop that hasn't been opened in months, an at&t signal booster, an ipad, and 4 phones that connect when they feel up to it. my old iphone 4 i ran on 3g because it was more reliable than my wireless. there's never more than 3 devices running at once. i've seen a few threads mentioning too many devices on one network. could that be it? i hope not. we have comcast as a provider too, if that helps.
    oh, and maybe i should describe my problem more clearly. on my phone, when i go to the wifi settings, it still list my network as one i'm linked too, it's just "not in range" and my new desktop can't see it at all. pretty sure it's not a hidden ssid because i connected my phone to it recently and had no probs. also, i'm fairly, but by no means 100%, certain that it's not the wireless card in the computer because i can see a few other networks and my phone had already been on it without giving me problems until earlier today. 
    if you know how to help, please be thorough in explaining it, and if i need to give more info, i'll try my damnest. please please please!!! help me, i spent all my money on this **bleep** computer and don't have anymore to buy another new router.

    Hi there. To start, that blue button that you have been pressing on the router is the Wifi Protected Setup button. You press that button when you want to connect a new wireless device that supports Wifi-Protected Setup to connect to the wireless internet via your wireless router without having to enter anything on the new wireless device. So it means, you did not reset the router. I would like to verify with you though because it is not clear to me (sorry), how do you want your new desktop computer to work? Wirelessly or with Ethernet cable plugged-in? If it is for wireless, you will only need to connect the computer’s wireless connection to the router wireless network and to enter the wireless password if you have wireless security enabled on the router. Also, the router should be able to provide simultaneously internet connection to multiple devices – be it wired or wireless. Sometimes the reason why the wireless would not work is when there is wireless interference in the area that you will need to change its wireless channel to something else. To have wireless security enabled on the router is helpful as well in making sure that the router will provide a better connection speed.

  • *** Can't connect a d-link DL-524 router...

    I've been using my iBook and my airport express base station to connect to the 'net no problem, but I would like to incorporate a DL-524 as my router because I'd like to move my airport express near my stereo to have it there to receive streamed music from my iBook to the airport express.
    The problem is, I can't seem to get the DL-524 set-up. I'm not sure if I need to do something I'm not aware of in the settings, but it keeps saying that there was an error connecting to the internet when I try to set-up the DL-524. I there a way in OS X to reset everything and start from scratch when setting up a wireless network? I'm wondering if my mac is confused about the connections?
    Can anyone suggest how I can get my DL-524 working so I can move my airport express and stream my music?
    Thanks in advance!

    Unfortunately I'm still unable to connect. I'm sorry to be high-maintenance but could you describe in a little more detail how I can set this up? I really appreciate any help anyone can give.
    Just to re-itereate, I would like to use my DL-524 route the connect my iBook to the internet and use my airport express plug in my living room just to stream music wirelessly from the iBook...
    Thanks in advance!

  • Can not connect the ipad 2 to wireless router. been working fine but some reason not working now being trying to solve this since 4pm today

    Can anyone help can not get my ipad to connect to wireless today. has been working fine but all of a sudden will not connect to Router. I have a kindle and a mobile and both of these will connect to the router wireless but the ipad will not.
    Been to my parents with the i pad and this will connect to their wireless router.
    Can not think of anything else to try

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
     Cheers, Tom

  • HT1178 can i connect the time capsule to a router?

    i am having problems setting up the time capsule for the first time.  it works when i connect the time capsule to my mac via ethernet cable.  however, i am trying to have it connect to my mac wirelessly.  so i pluget it into my router through the wan port, but it flashes yellow. 

    Flashing amber can mean anything .. it is just an error which you need to find in the airport utility the exact description.
    But I recommend reconnect by ethernet first.
    Setup wireless again.. this time use new name.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.. TC24ghz for example.. and different name for 5ghz.. TC5ghz works.
    Lock the wireless channels used particularly for 2.4ghz.. choose out of 1, 6, 11.
    Setup WPA2 Personal security with 8-12 character passkey.. pure alphanumeric.
    Update the TC, and disconnect the ethernet.. but do not move it yet.. with the Mac close by try to connect to the wireless.. if it still fails.. something is wrong in the hardware on one side or the other.
    If you get wireless working, determine if the router or modem you plug into is going to be the main router.. in which case bridge the TC. Or if the TC will be the main router.. setup the TC to connect by dhcp or pppoe depending on the broadband type.

  • Can't connect HP Lasejet P1102w to my router

    installed new router. hp1102w  which was previously used with former router now shows "unable to communicate with any wireless router or access point. I have tried installing printer per owners manual, even removed printer, then reinstalled. Nothing.
    HP Print and Scan Doctor shows my network and all info, but still wont connect.

    Hi,
    I would look at the router rather than the printer because the change here is the router. How do you setup the key on your new router ? I've got an old HP laptop namely nx8220 and it can only use WEP. The manual for your printer also only mentions WEP.
    Regards.

  • Can't connect to ISP until ping ISP router address

    I recently added a new MacBook (w/latest 10.5 updates) and had a lot of difficulty getting it to connect to our ISP through our AE. So much so that I reset our AE and re-entered all the information, creating a new network name and new network password. The AE is setup to share a specific ISP supplied IP address with a specific ISP provided router IP address and 2 specific ISP provided DNS IP addresses using DHCP and distributing a range of IP addresses for our 3 computers (2 airport connected MacBooks and 1 wired enet connected iMac). I also set it up to bind specific IP addresses to each computers MAC address using the airport MAC addresses for the MacBooks and enet MAC address for the iMac.
    Now when I try to connect from the older MacBook or iMac (both of which are running 10.4.11) it may or may not work until I actually ping the ISP router address from a terminal app window. Once I've pinged the ISP router the connections seem to be okay for a while.
    If I shut down the computer(s) and come back the next day I have to ping the router again before I can make a connection. I've not yet seen this problem with the new MacBook that's running the latest 10.5.
    Any ideas why I need to ping the ISP router from the older (10.4.11) computers before connections can be made?
    Have I missed some configuration step in the AE?

    Thanks for your respond . I gave it a try and still didn't work . Here the thing I been messing around with the setting just to be sure I enter everything right I could of change a setting that I shouldn't of , now I'm not sure if everything is correct . Where is the guide or steps I can follow to be sure my setting are correct . I'm using cable connection . I know my pop and smtp are correct but I'm not sure as to whether the other areas are . I mean if this or that should be check .

  • Can I connect a TC with BT Infinity router to form a network

    My main router is a BT Infinity 5 in the home and the TC is connected to this router via an in-line system in an out building office.  The system works fine in both places however is it possible to make one network?  I would like to have one network so that I can use the printer in the office.

    I am not sure what you are defining as in-line system.. but any ethernet or EOP adapter type setup will allow the TC to be part of the same network.
    It should be in bridge mode..
    ie
    And it should be set to create a wireless network of the same name and same security and password as the BT router.
    Where I have TC24ghz you type in your BT wireless name.
    The TC is then setup as a roaming wireless AP in the network.. with full access from anywhere in the network.. but do not expect perfection from Yosemite.. it has trouble remembering its own name 5 min after a reboot.

  • Can't connect MacBook Pro to Clear 4G router

    I have a mid 2010 MBP running 10.6.8 & recently purchased Clear 4G as my ISP. I bought the Express Hub which works great and connects with every device I have; PlayStation 3, iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and both a Win7 & Linux netbooks. Only my MBP won't stay connected to the Clear router. Contacting their support simply blames the notebook, but they say a driver isn't necessary and they don't know of any issues with OS X and their service. Security on the router is set at WPA2 PSK with AES encryption. Never had an issue connecting to any access point before. Any thoughts?

    Absolutely, my MBP is up to date with drivers, software, etc. like I mentioned, I never had an issue connecting elsewhere either, and I travel with my MBP.
    By default, the Clear router is WPA2 PSK with TKIP encryption, however I know AES is more secure, but neither get me connected. I even whitelisted my MBP MAC address in case of any IP issues, but still nothing. Seems WEP is the only (other than completely open) authentication it'll handshake with through this router. I know, it's something, but WEP is like an unlocked door to your home.
