Cannot connect HO C310a to LinksysWRT 54 g router wirelessly

I cannot connect a new HP C310a printer wirelessly to my linksys wrt 54 g router. I enter the SSID and the passphrase and it tries to connect then says it cannot. When I run the diagnostics it tells me MAC filtering may be enabled on the router. The router settings show MAC filtering is disabled. I have had no success with HP support despite loading and unloading printer SW. The printer SW is on a Windows 7 lap top. I have several other devices running wirelessly with no connection issues whatsoever so I am assuming that the printer must be defective. HP suggests a new router but if all my other devices can connect I am hesitant to take this advice. I just connected an iPhone wireless with no problems. Anyone have any ideas about how to get this thing to connect? Thanks

Sure, here are a few ideas:
1. Make sure that you are broadcasting your network name (SSID). If you are it would show up in a list of available networks in your area.
2. Do not use WEP, it is not at all secure and can cause connection problems if WEP is not configured correctly. Switch to WPA with a strong (13+ character) passphrase that you create yourself.
3. Switch your router to run on channel 11.

My iPad says cannot connect to server, I've turned router off and on 4 times but nothing helps

my iPad says in safari "cannot connect to server" and I can't get mail since 3 weeks ago. Ive unplugged my router 4 times and restarted my iMac but nothing helps. Please help me

I'm not sure what turning off your Mac has to do with this unless you are using Internet Sharing on the Mac for the iPad to connect to the Internet. In any event, have you tried, Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings?

Cannot Connect to other computers on my router

I have a u.s.robotics sureconnect 9106 (adsl modem and router - the same as
9105) and wanted to hang another pc with xp pro to my xp pro machine. So
i connect the two via ethernet cable to the router, but i am able
to ping the other machine and to use ftp but neither of the two can see
the other in windows xp pro
the same with a osx machine witch i connect for checking itunes or sharefolders
I also try my xbox with xbmc for sharing and streaming my itunes songs
but it doesn't work at all, even after i open the two ports asked by
itunes - i also deactivated outpost but that neither helped - the
strange thing is that in the outpost/system/lan-settings outpost can't
even see the other machine
I can also ping it and ftp, but nothing more
when i try to connect then outpost ask me if i want to allow it and
afterwards when i try to close itunes then it says that another user
is in my library but the xbmc says that it couldn't connect...
what have i forgotten?
I not read here that the port 5353 should be udp and i have only give the tcp port free but after changing to udp itunes not even told me on the exit that another user has access to my database
ah well i have on my router a virtual server with the same ip as my
computer (192.168.1 ist the modem 2 ist my computer and the virtual
server and 3 is the other computer) and there i set the port holes for
the nat service (itunes etc) BUT i think because of that i have
in the network connections not even a internet-gateway but only
the ethernet connection
I installed xp pro new, but then the gateway only appears for some
seconds and then disappear. But lately for a while it appears but after
some time it disappears - maybe its because i try this time not to give
my machine a fix ip and then its possible that the gateway appears when
I have another ip than the virtual server on my router, and that then
outpost also recognize the other computer?
any idea what i did wrong, or i have forgotten, i really haven't a clue
what to to and i never haven't heard that when you have a virtual
server (nat) then its not possible not to connect to others
computers...
thanks for your patience

Bought my iMac in February and worked fine up until about a month ago. I have assigned a manual IP address outside the range of other devices in my network (e.g. 192.168.0.10) and this seems to do the trick (most of the time). The problem I had was the self assigned IP address wasn't in the usual range for my router so while I was connected to Airport and the internet I couldn't view any webpages. Had to do the same thing to my Macbook which I purchased about a month ago.
The strange and very frustrating thing is sometimes it doesn't recognise my preferred network but then when it asks me to join a network, my network appears! When I try to connect and confirm password, connection times out. Whats that all about?
The bottom line is the assigned IP solution doesn't always work but it seems a combination of issues rather than one. None of the other devices on my network (ReadyNas Duo, Xbox 360, PS3, Wii etc) have issue connecting to the router using DHCP but for some reason Airport has trouble dealing with this and assigning a correct IP or can't find the network all together.
Only thing I can think is its some Airport update that has caused these intermittent issues and realy hope they fix it soon.
So no update but just wanted to share my experiences in what seems a very wide scale issue...

Cannot connect 2 Airport Express after replacing router

I recently had to replace my wireless router resulting in the need to update the configuration on my two airport expresses to join the new network. They are both n and are running firmware version 7.6.1. I use them only for airplay. I am able to update the configuration on one, but when I connect to the second one via ethernet cable, the first disappears from the AirPort Utility and is undiscoverable. Additionally, I have found that even when I get one configured, after about 15 minutes, it disappears as well and is undiscoverable. Any assistance getting back up and running would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

So I went back to the PC after my original post, and somehow I was able to connect to the AirPort wireless network in the Windows Wireless Network List. Once I did this, it showed up in the AirPort Utility, and I was able to access the internet. I have no idea what fixed the problem, but maybe it was simply a matter of waiting a few minutes before connecting to the network?

Cannot connect to FTP from NetCam thru Router

I have a netcam from another vendor (AirLink SkyIPCam250) that I access thru my home network (WRT54G). I can access the live feed from outside of the network fine. Now I'm trying to auto-post pics from the netcam to my FTP site, which is hosted by GoDaddy.
After setting up the cam with my FTP info, when I try a test post, the netcam reports "can not connect to FTP server".
I've sent messages to the support departments for AirLink and GoDaddy and they indicate the settings should work. Since the netcam is going thru the WRT54G router, I'm wondering if I have to do any special port settings there (or even thru Windows XP firewall) in order to have the camera push images thru the network. When entering FTP settings on the cam, it indicates that it wants to use port 21.
If it matters, I've flashed the latest firmware for the router and camera. I can also access my FTP site from a web browser using the same name/password.
Most of this is new to me. Thanks in advance for any ideas,
- Tom

If you can access ftp site from computer, then you don't need port forwarding. It is needed to host ftp site. Make sure you have set proper ftp address, and correct user name and password, on camera's setup

Cannot connect to home network with iphone via wireless.

wireless home network does not appear in iphone. pc, laptops and iTV work perfect with wireless. I tried everything i can think of. anysuggestions?

If there is no problem with the iPhone seeing any other available wi-fi networks or connecting with any other wi-fi network your iPhone has access to, not sure how it can't be a problem with your wireless router or network regardless if the iPad and iMac have no problem.
No change after resetting network settings on the iPhone and/or after restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup.

Cannot connect to router E1000

Hello,
I own a E1000 router that I use with several wireless machines. I have no problem connecting to the internet.
Unfortunately, I cannot connect to the configuration of the router by typing https://192.168.1.1/ nor http://192.168.1.1/ in a browser, be it wirelessly or wiredly. For example, Firefox displays "Connection has been reinitialized". Furthermore, when I launch Cisco Connect, it only shows the error "Unable to connect to router".
I tried to switch my router off and on, but that doesn't help. Totally resetting the router solves the problem, but not definitely.
Is there a solution that does not require resetting my router?
Thank you very much.

(I don't see anymore how to edit my initial post.)
The message displayed by Firefox is “The connection was reset” and not what I had translated into “Connection has been reinitialized”.
As far as the OSs are concerned, the machines that should be able to access my router are running Ubuntu, Android, Windows and an embed version of Linux. I tried with different webbrowsers, including Firefox and the Android Browser.
Please tell me if I should add any additional information.
I did a lot of search on the web and some say that similar problems come from the option of HTTPS that is selected for accessing the administration page. Is this correct? Should I abandon the idea of wanting a configuration with HTTPS?

Cannot connect to home wi-fi. temporarily connects then disconnects ?

My Droid-X cannot connect to my wi-fi home router. using WPA2-PSK. Phone sees network but will not connect ?
At one point is connected for a few seconds only ?

We certainly want you to be connected at home amc129!
Lets take a look at this! Have you been able to connect previously to the WPA2-PSK setting? Can you connect with other WiFi networks like normal? If so, I recommend contacting the router provider, as a software update or settings change may be necessary. Please keep me posted!
Thanks,

Cannot connect OSX 10.4 Tiger to wifi WEP personal

I have two old G3's or G4's that can only run OSX 10.4 Tiger. They connect to unsecured routers just fine.
But the problem is they cannot connect to my Q1000 Centurylink wifi router when i put a password on it. I have tried WEP and WPA-personal and used AES and TKIP configurations, but they tell me they are unable to connect. I know there are few of these around but it seems odd that i cannot find this issue on the internet with a Google search.
Can you think of any work around?
A different forum that is more relevant?

Hi, on WEP try Putting a $ in front of the password...
$paswd
If 5 chrs.
Or...
nstead of joining it from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed. Before I went through network diagnostics and all of that stuff in system preferences, and then I tried the "Join Other Network" method, and now it works like a dream.
On WPA personal, the original Airport cards neede a Firmware update to do that, & they cant do WPA2.

I cannot connect to internet after I update system.

Hi,
I update my system a few day ago (use systemd to replace rc.d) and I cannot connect internet. I guess my router table is broken, but I cannot find any problem.
I use ping to try some IP. And I find I connect to local machine only.
Do I miss some configuration ?

I have an iPad3, recently updated the ios to 6.0.1. Since the update I cannot connect to wi-fi at my house. I am able to connect at work, but not at home. I have changed routers 3 times, have reset, uninstalled and re-installed, and everything I can think

I have an iPad2 and recently updated the ios. Since the update, I cannot connect to wi-fi through my router. I can still connect at work, but at home it will just not work. I have tried everything I can think of. I have reset, uninstalled, re-installed, and changed routers. 3 times. I cannot get it to work. Does this have something to do with the update? I have even reset the network settings, and restored the ipad itself to factory default settings. Can anyone help me?

Try and "Forget This Network"
Settings>Wi-Fi>tap little arrow on right of network.

My iMac is working with my Airport Extreme, but Macbooks cannot connect.

After a number of power outages, we lost wireless throughout the house. ISP and modem all checked and okay. Reset Airport Extreme to factory settings. I am connected on my iMac (wirelessly via the Airport), but Macbooks and iPad cannot connect. They are picking up a wireless signal, but not the Airport network and shows an error message "not connecting to Internet".
Suggestions?

A little more information from the Macbook - when I open System Preferences - Network, there is a message on the left showing the Airport device, and also says "self-assigned IP". On the right side under Status, it states"Airport has the self-assigned IP address of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and will not be able to connect to the Internet." Not sure if this provides any clues?

Network name comes up, but cannot connect to Airport Express

Recently it seems that every other day I cannot connect to my Airport Express. The wireless network name always appears; however, when I try to connect to that network (I have it password protected), I get a "timed out" error. I then have to unplug the Airport Express and plug it back in to reboot. Connecting back to the network always works after that.
Is this an Airport Express issue or my home internet connection issue?

So did i screw something up last night when i connected using my PC?
That sounds likely. Maybe the security type or password?
And if so how do i re-set the link with my mac??
Try the options described on pp. 30-33 of http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/AirPort_Express_SetupGuide.pdf
Once you get things working again, suggest you save the settings in a profile. In future when you bring the PC home, create a different profile for experimentation. Switch back to the usual profile when you're done with the PC. Eventually, you should be able to develop one profile that works with both machines.

Hi Peera,
the first message is because the user switched quickly between SSIDs. This is a behavior that WLC blocks by default.
Change the option "Fast SSID change" to enabled if you want to stop that blocking.
The second message simply means that the client was not configured for wpa/wpa2 ... This is something I can hardly comment on since I can't see the client configuration

My ipad2 appears to be connected to the internet, but I cannot connect..I keep getting Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet....I restarted the router and the ipad still no connection...my service is working properly

My ipad 2 appears to be connected to the internet(all bars are up in the left hand corner).....yet I cannot connect to the internet(Safari cannot connect open the page because it is not connected to the internet)
I unplugged my router for 30 seconds and restarted my ipad...still nothing
I really don't think it is my service because my laptop works fine...as I am using the internet right now
I only had this ipad for 2 days
Are there any suggestions that can help solve this problem?

Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
