You could start by telling us what kind of wireless card you have

HP 6300 all in one can't set up for wireless use

can't set up for wireless use

That is because the printer does not support wireless connectivity to a router. You can with an optional Bluetooth adapter to one computer wireless. However since this has an Ethernet connection you can connect it to your router via this or you can use the below information to convert your Ethernet wired printer to wireless.
Connect wireless printer anywhere, convert from wired, bypass failed radio, add WPA2 security.

Can you set up a wireless network/router using only the iPad?

Can you set up a wireless network/modem/router using only an iPad - if you don't have a computer?

You actually can as most routers come with a web interface that lets you tinker with all things with regard to set up and connection.
You have to choose though as there are other routers that would require you to plug-it in to a computer first, as they have a desktop application to make way for easier set-up.
But for everything else, it is done through a web client which is just like accessing any web site.

How can I set up a wireless network between two Mac Mini's (media centres)?

I've just received my second mac mini (core duo, 1.83, 1 Gb ram)and want to set up a wireless network to link this with my original mac mini (PPC 1.42, 512MB) and my Belkin wireless router (g std).
I'm using both as media centres in different rooms and want to keep all my media (films, photo's, music etc.) on one mini (connected to a 640GB external drive) and access it over the wireless network. Sort of a more felxible Apple TV setup??
I've got the wireless network working no problems with both mini's connected to the internet over the network but I'm stuck at how I get the two mini's to see each other. I've tried "the Missing Manual" and these forums but no success so far.
I know it can be done but would really appreciate any suggestions/directions on what to do?
Thanks in advance<<br>

Can I set 1 laptop wireless connect with static IP to WRT610N?

I have a WRT610N with 3 PCs wired and various wireless devices accessing. 1 of the wireless devices, running Windows 7, needs to run a static IP. Do/Can I set this up in the router or do I need to do in the PC?

You can use DHCP reservation in the router to assign a fixed IP address to the PC.
Or you can set the static IP address on the PC directly.

Photosmart 7520--can't set up to wireless network

I set up photosmart 7520 on wireless network just fine out of the box. a few days ago I couldn't print to it and now can't reset up on wireless network to print. Help!!!

Hey jonathanray,
I see you are having an issue getting your printer to connect to your home network. This thread is about the Photosmart 7520. Is this the model printer you are working with?
You mention resetting the printer. Did you simply power cycle the unit to Hard Reset the device or what type of reset did you perform?
Have you tried restoring the network defaults of the printer to see if it can connect after performing a Hard Reset to all devices in the network connection?
Follow these steps to reset your HP printer, your wireless router, and your computer.
Press the Power button on the HP printer to turn it off.
Disconnect the power cord from the rear of the HP printer.
Disconnect the power cord from the wireless router.
Turn off the computer.
Wait 30 seconds.
Reconnect the power cord to the wireless router.
Wait 30 seconds, or until the router is fully on and ready.
Turn the computer back on.
Wait for the computer to reload.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the HP printer.
Turn the printer back on.
Press the Setup menu option on the front panel of the printer
Select the Wireless submenu
Scroll to the bottom of the list and select "Restore Network Defaults"
Select Yes on the next screen
After performing these steps try connecting the printer again using the Wireless Setup Wizard in the Wireless submenu of the Setup menu again. Does this help get the unit connected?
What brand/model of router are you using? What is the name of the company that provides your internet service?
Let me know how this goes and the answers to these questions and I will do my best to provide continued support,
Jason

Can I set up a wireless network with only certain units

Just want to set up some units not all

Not exactly sure what you are asking. Do you mean can the AirPort Express provide wireless for some wireless network clients but not all of them? If so, then the answer is yes. You can use the Timed Access feature and only allow wireless clients with the proper MAC address to connect.

Time Capsule can't set up as wireless network, but Airport Extreme works

I just bought a Time Capsule to use as a back-up hard drive and a wireless network. I currently have a Airport Extreme for my wireless network and it works fine. When I try to plug in the ethernet cable into the Time Capsule to set up a new wireless network - all I get is a blinking amber light on Time Capsule and Airport Utility can not find Time Capsule. When I plug the ethernet cable back into the Airport Extreme to see if my DSL is working - the Airport Extreme light is back on and I can connect to the internet. I updated the Time Capsule with the latest firmware so that's no it. Any ideas?

OK, thanks for the clarification.
First, make a note of the configuration settings in the Airport Extreme as you will likely set up the TC the same way. Open AirPort Utility, click on Manual Setup at the bottom of the pane and then click on the Airport icon at the top of the next page, which is a summary of your settings. Would be a good idea to write these down and keep them handy.
Then do a hard reset on the Time Capsule to get it back to factory defaults. You would do this by first pulling the power cable for a few minutes. Then using an unfolded paper clip or something small, hold in the reset button on the back while you plug the power cable back in and continue to hold the reset button for at least 10-12 seconds before you release it.
Power off your computer, then restart. When it's back up, connect an ethernet cable from the computer to the WAN port on the back of the Time Capsule. This should help Airport Utility "see" the Time Capsule so you use Airport Utility to configure it.
If you have set up the Extreme, the TC set up is basically the same unless you have changed the modem or some other things in your network.
Post back on your progress.

Can I set up a wireless printer as a network printer and not use Airport?

I have a HP Photosmart Plus wireless printer set up in my network for use by several iPods, iPads, and iPhones. I have an iMac running 10.6.8 that I want to set it up on, but to use it as a regular network printer, not using Airport. Is this possible? I haven't been able to hit on the right combination of settings. I have a Samsung laser printer that works this way, and an Epson that is attached to an Airport Express, but all I get on the HP is garbage. It will work when I set it up using the HP install disk, but I have to use Airport and I don't always get a good signal where the iMac is located. I would prefer to use the wired connection to my router and access the HP's IP address, like a wired network printer. Any suggestions?

I'm using a Canon printer here which is networked via my Airport Express. My printer cannot be Wi fi enabled simultaneousely with an ethernet cable connection. It is either or. I realise that this doesn't fully answer your question, but I just wanted to give you a clue. You'd need to consult your owners manual, or HP to get a definitive answer.
If you want to use the HP printer printer only with the wired ethernet connection to your router, that should be no problem as long as it is ethernet capable.
After setting it up for wired ethernet capability, you will need through the sequence of powering your router down, and resetting you Lan network so the router and printer can pick up their respective IP assignments.

Can I set up two wireless security networks on my router?

I have read the earlier post that was similar, but I have a different router. I have a WRT160Nv3. I have set up WPA2 security and it works great. My son is upset because he can no longer access the WiFi with his DS. He has several games that allow him to play with others online. The DS games use only unsecured or WEP, anything stronger and they don't work. Is there anyway to open one port for the DS?

No. Either you use WEP security and have the high risk that your wireless network is quickly cracked or you stick with the secure WPA2. In the latter case your son should get a new DSi which supports WPA2 security.

Can't set Intel 3945AGB wireless card to Ad-Hoc

When I try to set my wireless card to ad-hoc ...

I was always able to do this until recently ... did an update break this? This is on what lspci reports as ...

I'm having the same issue with Arch64 on kernel 2.6.29.
lspci output:

I've been able to get this working before with kernel 2.6.28 and wicd, but now it's not working with wicd or iwconfig. I've tried Googling around for a solution and found some bug reports, but haven't come up with anything recent. Any help is appreciated.
UPDATE: I found this bug report. Apparently it's an issue with the kernel itself that has been fixed numerous times. Any chance we could get this fixed permanently in the Arch64 kernel?

How can I set up a wireless network??

I have a Airport Base station at home would like to network my laptop with my desktop. Only thing is I believe the desktop does not have a airport card installed, it is an older mac. The base station is hooked up to it by a cable.
Could someone please tell me what I need to do to network these computers?
Thanks!

You already have a network setup.
If you enable file sharing on your laptop you should be able to see it from the desktop. Similarly if you enable file sharing on your desktop you should be able to see it from the laptop.
You can find all the gory details in KB 106461, Mac OS X: About File Sharing.

How can i set up a wireless network from my iMac lion, with a windows 7??

I wish to setup a network from my iMac to my gf windows 7 laptop, but can't figure out how...

In order to do this you should have a router. Once you have a router and both computers on the network then you will need to turn on File Sharing on the Mac. You can locate Sharing in System Preferences - Sharing. On the PC it has a similar function but typical of MS Windows much more arcane and complex. First thing you will need to know is what version of MS Windows you have, then you can Google something like "File sharing OS X Lion with Windows 7" and you will find lots of instructions.
