Connect Linksys Network Optimizer OGV200 to multi-function router/modem

I'm using a Westell Versalink 7500 multi-function router/modem for DSL Internet service. I would like to connect the Linksys Network Optimizer OGV200 to improve my VOIP calls. Linksys instructions say insert the OGV200 optimizer between the router and the modem. Since I'm using a multi-function router/modem unit, how would I connect the OGV200 optimizer to my unit--if at all?

IPhone shows connected to network, but no wifi icon, not Router or DNS listed

Hi. Just purchased an iPhone 4g for my daughter. Am trying to connect to our home wifi network. My phone works fine, shows I'm connected, shows IP, Subnet Mask, router, DNS. The new phone shows it's connected in settings / Wifi Networks (check mark) but them there is only the IP address and Subnet Mask listed, no DNS or Router. Have tried rebooting, forgetting network and starting over, turning wifi on and off, turning airplane setting on and off.
What is going on? Husband had similar issues with iPod touch, but can remember how he resolved it. All of our Mac laptops can connect to the home wifi network.
Thanks in advance for any insights!

Same problem here and I can't find a solution either.

Unable to connect to internet with hp laptop using xfinity router/modem

Hi,I have a hp pavilion computer model dv9910us with windows vista hom premium OS. I have an xfinity wireless gateway device modem/router. I have had this at another location and it worked using verizon with a separate modem and router. I also tried it at a xfinity location with a separate modem and router and it worked. I got a separate wireless adapter and installed that and disabled the atheros ar5007 adapter in the device manager. will that atheros 2011 adapter work with this model computer using the windows vista home premium os. If so, could I leave the ar5007 disabled and install the 2011 to make sure it's ok before uninstalling the ar5007. I'm really a novice and just stumbling my way through this. Any help is appreciated.

Hi: You should enable the atheros wireless card, and install this driver. It will have no effect on the other one you are using. http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=5060881&swItemId=ob_108905_1&swEnvOid=4059# Then shut down the PC, remove the usb adapter, reboot, and see if you can connect via the atheros card.

Fax via Network Multi-Function Printer

I own a HP Multi-Function device to print, scan, fax, etc. My home network is set up to PRINT wirelessly from my computer to my printer, but for some reason I am unable to FAX wirelessly. As of now I must first print the document then fax it manually, when I'd much rather skip the middle steps of printing and just fax it directly using my network. The only way I can send a fax from my computer is bypass my wireless network and plug directly into the HP printer via USB. I think if I can print wirelessly why can't I fax wirelessly too? Any suggestions?

HP All-In-One Printer/Scanner/Fax plugged into a phone line

TC (and airport extreme) peripheral support falls into universal (ethernet) and special (usb).
Anything that can be connected to the ethernet port will be translated through the wireless system and work just well (or not well) as it would if connected via ethernet. Devices plugged into the USB port (directly or through a hub) require special support by Apple. Apple writes drivers for these and adds a tab to the airport utility software. This used to be just printers. Currently, this is limited to printers and hard drives. MFCs go beyond the simple printing function Apple is trying to support via USB.
In my case, I have a Brother 7820n MFC. Its designed to operate over ethernet. Plugged into the TC, this means printing, scanning, and faxing (right out the phone jack) wirelessly - from every computer in the house.
Does your MFC offer an ethernet upgrade?

HP 3055 networked multi-function device: installation issue

Our home office network has an HP 3055 multi-function printer/fax/copier/scanner. I've been unable to scan from my MacBook since installing snow leopard. Attempts to reinstall the drivers from the original HP Mac disk have failed. Now whenever I boot my Mac, the HP "all-in-one" software tries to install itself. When I click "Finish" the installation crashes. I have a copy of the crash dump, but won't post it unless someone wants to see it.
Oddly, I can print just fine. My impression from the HP website is that they have given up on the Mac. Perhaps someone at Apple could persuade them to reconsider.
FYI I can scan just fine from Windows XP and Vista computers that are connected to the same subnet. Thanks for any advice.

No, HP hasn't given up on the Mac platform at all. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669?viewlocale=en_US has a list of all HP printers supported in Snow Leopard, and the ones with an '*' indicate that there have been updates for the drivers for these models. They're still developing, but I think they are trying to phase out some of the older models.

10.6.7 upgrade messes up my Canon MX700 multi-function print connection

I have a Canon MX700 multi-function printer connected to my Mac Pro. I have printer sharing on and enabled in the firewall and sharing preferences. I have an iMac that connects to this printer through the Mac Pro. It has worked fine for years like this.
I upgraded to the latest 10.6.7 software, and that also came with new Canon printer drivers a few days ago. Now I have printer issues.
Whenever I print from either machine, a warning box appears on the Mac Pro for 5 seconds:
Do you want the application "canonijnetwork.bundle" to accept incoming network connections?
Clicking Deny may limit the application's behavior. This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of Security preferences>
( Deny ) ( Allow )
If I can click on the Allow button in those 5 seconds, then the job prints. Otherwise, the print queue is paused -- some of the time.
If I open the print queue and pause, then resume the printer, I get the warning box again, with another chance to Allow.
This happens every time. I went to the firewall and sharing and printer preferences and made sure that everything was allowed, but to no avail.
I power cycled the machines and printers, but no change.
I am thinking that this is a bug in the new security upgrade, or the new drivers.
Can someone else verify that this is happening to others?
Any suggestions on how to get permissions to stick?

Thanks for the reply. I just tried that, but the problem did not go away. I did notice that in the print queue status window, when I am printing from the same machine, says "A communication error has occurred." if I do not click the Allow button in time.
I just tried turning my firewall off, and everything went back to normal. The canonijnetwork.bundle is listed as accepting connections. Printer sharing is also listed as accepting connections.
So, I turn the firewall back on again, and the problem starts up again -- even though it says that all are still accepting network connections.

I'm looking for some help connecting linksys IP Cameras to my home network to monitor my property when I'm travelling. I used to do this with linksys WAPS, but since I've discarded all my old linksys networking and standardized on airport, I can't get these things working. I know that I have to identify my camera through the DHCP table and set up port forwarding and there is the problem.
My network consists of 4 base stations set up in a roaming network - same network name and passwords. I need to do it this way so I don't have to switch network when I move from one side of the house to the other, go to the cabana, or my shop in the barn. The network works pretty well since I went to a roaming set up. Good performance, yata, yata, yata.
However, the roaming network requires the AEBS's to be set up in bridge mode, rather than sharing an ip address. When the AEBS is set to bridge mode, you don't see a DCHP table or have the ability to identify your IP Cam through the AEBS - and hence, no port forwarding.
I am able to identify and set up my Linksys IP Cam by locating the ip address on my FIOS router, even though, it's plugged into an AEBS. I set it up, see the video, remove the ethernet cable from the IP Cam, restart - and I can't get to it from an AEBS. In researching this, it appears, I should be setting up the AEBS to "share an IP Address", going to the DHCP table and identifying the camera's IP address and setting up port forwarding. However, you don't see any of the DHCP or port forwarding options in Airport Network Utility when configuring in bridge mode.
I'm hoping I'm missing something here and that the solution isn't to set it up at the FIOS router level, but I'm beginning to think that's my only hope. What concerns me there is that I should be able to see the IP cam on the network without port forwarding since I'm not coming from outside, and I can't even do this unless it's connected hard wire.
I'd appreciate any insight into this that anyone might have. I've hit the wall with what I know.
Thanks.

In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

10.6.8 Snow Leopard loses HP multi-function scanner connection when users are switched.

I've got 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) installed on an iMac with a USB attached HP multi-function printer/scanner/fax.
I've removed all HP software and got the latest HP drivers from Software Update.
The software was able to scan appropriately using Preview and Image Capture until my wife signed onto the computer using her id.
(She switched users and logged into her account on the same iMac.)
Upon switching back to my user id, there was 'No scanner detected.' I removed and re-added the printer. No luck.
(In fact, upon re-adding the printer, the connection just showed 'USB' instead of 'USB multi-function', and doesn't find a scanner.)
Rebooting solves the problem (until the next time we switch users).
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks,
Jimmy

Is it possible to run the Macgames Realmyst disc on Snow Leopard10.6.8 at 64bit?
I believe RealMyst is a "pure" is only PowerPC. So it doesn't matter whether you boot in 32 or 64 bit but it does matter whether you installed Rosetta on your system (optional when you installed your system) to handle the ppc code. Even with Rosetta there's no guarantees that app will run in 10.6.8.
Also RealMyst is for OSX. SheepShaver is for emulating Clasic OS9 so forget about that.

Wireless print server that suppports multi-function?

I have a family member who has an HP multi-function USB only printer (can't remember the model offhand). They are looking to get a laptop soon. I was also gonna then hook them up with a wireless router for their home & DSL connection. The current HP printer is USB, but I would like to somehow make it wireless. I have used several wireless print server devices for USB printers, but none of them support the multi-functions (scan, copy, fax, etc) and simply allow you to do basic printing wirelessly. Short of buying a totally new wireless printer and/or network printer of some sort that can plug into the router & then handle all these functions wirelessly, is there possibly any wireless routers or wireless print server devices out there that will FULLY handle HP multi-function printers?

I have never heard of one. Besides, it would cost about the same $ to get a new wireless all-in-one.

Can someone recommend a good multi-function scanner/printer/copier that works with Mac OS 10.6.8?

I've just purchased a Canon Image Class MF4570dn. Very disappointed to find that whatever I do I cannot get the scanner to work & the Apple support board is of no help.
It seems like there is a conflict with OS 10.6.8 that does not let the scanner get recognized by any scanning software -- either the Mac native software in Preview or the Canon software included on CD with the box & via download from Canon's site. The Canon software is called "MF Toolbox" but for the life of me I can't get it to start without instantly crashing!
Any suggestions of set-ups that are working with you on a similar system set-up would be much appreciated!

This is discouraging! I ended up trying Canon because my Macbook Pro suddenly stopped recognizing my previous HP scanner -- a MF inkjet printer.
I have been looking at HP multi-function lasers in lieu of this faulty Canon I just returned.
I intend to be doing very simple things with whatever MF unti I end upw ith -- no printing or scanning over the network. I'm happy to connect it directly to my computer via USB. So I'm not sure I'd experience the problems you are having.
Maybe I should go w/ one of these Brother units? Is there anyone on this board that can attest to these machines working with MacBook Pros?

Faxing from Mountain Lion with a multi-function printer

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion from Lion. Of course, my Apple external modem hasn't worked since the initial upgrade.
I hadn't done too much about this, but it really is awfully convenient to fax from my computer, vs. printing something out and putting it in the fax machine. (I have a stand-alone one.)
I DO have a Canon multi-function printer (the MX870). When I set it up (which was a nigthmare) I didn't setup the fax portion because I HAVE a fax.
But now ... well, I'm tired of not being able to fax from my computer. So I know I SHOULD be able to, but I haven't been able to get it to work. I connected the phone line (it's on a splitter with the other portion going to our comcast cable modem.) But it's not visible via the "add print or scanner" preference. The manual is less than clear.
Do I need to add some Canon software? I'm not at home now, but I'm thinking I'll try that next.
Any help wold be much appreciated. I know I could buy a new external modem, but as I'm about to purchase a new Retina MacBook pro, I'd just as soon not!
(P.S. Perhaps this goes in networking.)

Yes absolutely. I set it up last Fall and have been using it until last week, at whick time I lost wireless connectivity with router for no reason at all. I can not remember how to do it now and I am looking for the answer myself.

Multi-function printer compatibility

I have read in a few places that a multi-function printer (print, scan, fax, copy) will not work with all of the computers on the network plugged in to the USB port of the time capsule
to anyone that has the time capsule, is this true?
will all computers on the network be able to print?
because it is not too crucial for me to be able to scan to and fax from other computers on the network, will the scan and fax functions be usable on at least one of the computers?

Installation fails connecting to network printer

Installed new motherboard, processor Phenom II X4, memory into system. I installed:
Win XP Pro SP3
Windows Firewall disabled; no third party AV, firewall software (brand new OS install)
Connecting to Dlink Gigabyte switch DCS-2208
Printer Officejet Pro 7780
Printer Software Version: Full and Basic 8.0.2

In the installation error log: CSLPInterface:: InstallDevice caught in exception, Exception from Service 0x8007000D
Run: Driver UI Plug-In exits returning 50
exit code=50
Any ideas
Thanks

T,
I'm curious if you ever got this resolved. I'm having the same problem with a Photosmart C5180.
It all started because I couldn't scan, so after resetting everything (laptop, printer, switch, router) and it still not working- I decided I'd just reinstall the software. I decided to download the latest software from hp's site, uninstalled the old software and installed the new software. I select Network Printer, it finds the printer and then proceeds to install the device - where after 70 percent or so, it fails out providing me the error:
Now Launching=X:\hpzdui01.exe -1 XXX -f X:\FIVins??.DAT
CSLPInterface::InstallDevice caught in exception, Exception from Service 0xE0000228
RUN: Driver UI Plug-In exits returning 50
Exit code=50
Which is similiar to yours, the only exception of course being the Service ID.
I've run a L3 and L4 uninstall but still get the same problem. I've deleted all TCP printer ports since the uninstall didn't delete them, thinking that may be the problem and it wasn't. I searched for the Service number it lists above in the registry and didn't find it. Tried installing by right clicking on the exe and selecting Run As Administrator. None of these fixed the problem.
I've been chatting with HP support online (3 times) and have done the following:
Reinstalled
Uninstalled
L3 Uninstall
Rebooted
Set firewall exceptions for both inbound and outbound
disabled firewall
disabled antivirus
reinstalled
uninstalled
powered off printer
unplugged network & power supply
pressed the power button on the printer for 30 seconds to deplete the stored power in the capacitors
powered the thing back on
Verified network connectivity by going to the printer web page
reinstalled
uninstalled
Uninstalled using Windows Install Cleanup utility
reinstalled
uninstalled
L4 uninstall
rebooted
Turned off my wireless connection on the laptop, plugeed into wired connection
reinstalled
uninstalled
Finally was told it was a problem with my laptop and politely asked if there was anything else they could help me with.
I believe its a problem with their software since my laptop shows no other signs of issue and the printer works on another laptop running Vista Home Premium (just like mine) with no issue. I was printing ok before the issue but for some reason had an issue with scanning leading to this problem.
Kind of makes me want to go out and buy a multi-function from a different manufacturer.
What a waste of time!
If you've been able to resolve your issue, please let me know what you did. If anyone has any ideas, I'd be appreciative if you could let me give me some idea as to what to try next.

Favorite Color Laser Multi Function Printer

Hi,
We have four computers all running OS 10.6 connected to Airport Extreme base. Currently using Brother 5440 inkjet connected via Ethernet to the Airport. It scans from all computers, albeit with an occasional restart of the printer. We're looking to replace it (bad printerhead) with a Multi Function Laser device. I've read many reviews, etc complaining about inability to scan over the network or driver problems (HP 1312) for instance. My printer tech person recommends Canon 8350 or HP 1312. Any thoughts on the best Snow Leopard compatible Color Laser MF Printer?

After long consideration and being fed up with issues with HP printers in he past (especially with limited functionalities with Mac OS), I bought me a Canon MP560 this summer.
I think it's a great value for money, to refill the ink is reasonably priced (o.k., it could always be cheaper), but my most favorite feature is that I can print and scan from anywhere in the house. So far I am very pleased with both the scanning and printing results. Installation and handling of the SW suite is a child's play.
If I had to print more I would actually look into a Laser / LED MFP... perhaps the Brother MFC-9120CN or its wireless brother MFC-9320CW, which costs actually quite a bit more.
Unfortunately, as it seems, Canon has nothing to offer in this class of printers at reasonable prices that are also rated high.
Just my 10 cents.
