Lost wireless connection

my hp office jet 4500 wireless printer lost its connection. Tehre is nothing in the printer que.  How do i reconnect my wirelss printer?

Did you power off everything??  Power off printer, power off router.  Power on router, wait 2 mins.  Power on printer to see it connects to your router.

  • Satellite L500 - Lost wireless connection

    My Satellite L500 recently lost wireless connection. I looked up the Realtek wireless device in Device Manager, and it says the device is working properly. I have tried using "ping 192.168.1.1" to reach the router, and I get "Transmit error - general failure".
    Any ideas?

    Hi buddy,
    And now does Windows recognize some WLAN networks in range? Your posting lost wireless connection is not very useful
    You should try a WLAN driver update that you can download on official Toshiba page:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/
    If you still cannot find or connect to WLAN networks disable the WLAN power saving mode in Windows power profiles. You have to set it to maximum performance.

  • E60 lost wireless connection to network

    my E60 lost wireless connection to network. tried GPS, DUAL, automatic, manual search for network. Same SIM works fine with different phone. Any idea anyone?

    Hi Neil
    I'm not familiar with HH (I use a third party router) but it looks as though the HH is set to NOT broadcast the SSID. I'm sure that if you go into the HH settings (the address foe the HH should be 192.168.1.254) you should find somewhere a check box or whatever that allows the router to b'cast the SSID or not. Some would argue that you should not b'cast the SSID but IMHO it makes no difference as the SSID is so easy to discover even if it's not being b'cast.
    Just another thought is that you might have to set the wireless connection up as a separate connection to the wired connection. I don't know which OS you are using but if Win 7 then go into 'Network and Sharing centre' and then select 'connect to a network' and take it from there. If not on Win 7 then, if I recall correctly, right click on the networking icon in the system tray and there should be an option to connect to a network.
    Hope this helps, if not then I'm sure there are other HH users on this forum who will provide advice.

  • Lost wireless connection with mx860

    i lost my wireless connection with my mx860 - please help, i have tried it all
    thank you

    Did you solve your printer connection problem?  I have the same issue.  When I first turn the system on, it is connected.  But after a short time (a few minutes?) it loses connection between Mac and printer, even tho both are connected to my WIFI.  I have to turn the printer and and off to reconnect it to the Mac.  Very frustrating.  I have checked Netgear, Printer and Mac settings and can't find any explanation.

  • Equium A110 - Lost wireless connection

    Hello all,
    can you help?
    I have lost connection on my Equium A110 and also another laptop (not Toshiba) it askes for or incorrect IP address.
    I have an linksys router which has had its filmware up to date

    Hello
    For me its definitively not a notebook issue because on the other notebook you have a problem with the wireless connection too.
    Its not so easy to say what the reason is for this
    In your case I would try the command line the command ipconfig /renew
    Does it work?
    If it doesnt work you should try to disconnect the router from the AC/DC adaptor for at least 5 minutes. Then connect the AC/DC adaptor again and try it.
    Good luck!

  • Lost wireless connection on a wrt110 router!

    Oh HELPPPPP!   I lost my wireless connection last week, it just vanished!  Called Dell they couldn't figure it out, I worked on it I can't figure it out.  It was there then it was just gone!!  All drivers are updated, but I keep getting the error message " the network adapter intel(r) wifi link 4965agn is experiencing driver or hardware related issues"  ...   This is driving me nuts, any suggestions???

    Well, this problem is not related with your Linksys router. It is driver error on your computer. I would suggest you check the Device Manager in WIndows to see if your wireless adapter in your computer was installed properly. If it shows a yellow triangle in the device manager you have to reinstall the driver.

  • Lost wireless connection with Lexmark Printer

  • Severity: 3 Administrative access denied, and lost wireless connection

    What does that mean? I am currently watching my Logs file update every other second with a new line that looks like someone is trying to access my Airport.
    The date is wrong too, says Dec. 31 when it's May 31. Line is as follows:
    Dec 31 19:03:15 Severity:3 Administrative access denied to fe80::21e:c2ff:fec0:4f0d%mirror0/49925.
    The original reason why I was looking at the Log was because I got bounced off my Airport again. It happens now and then, when there are a bunch of wireless connections in the building, I can see them listed, but when it happens, my own Airport is missing from the list.
    The other issue is that I am not interested in paying for someone else's internet access. I have it password protected, but the person I *think might be trying to hack it, is a computer genius/programmer who's built systems, so I'm a bit worried because I don't know anything about this stuff.
    Is there any way I can make sure I'm not bounced off my connection again, and that noone else gets to use my connection?
    Thanks!

    As long as you're passwords are strong, I wouldn't worry about it. There is always someone somewhere trying to gain access to a router, to get internet access or what have you.
    More then likely if someone did try and access your routers, and got denied, they just moved on to the next router he could find and try to access that one.
    Just make sure you're passwords are strong enough.
    If you're concerned that your password isn't strong enough, or to common, check out this website.

  • Lost Wireless Connection Again

    Out of the blue in the middle of loading a web site, I lost wirless connection and nothing would make it reconnect. (turning ariport card off and on, sleep, diagnostics, etc) Connetion status went grey as well.
    However, I was able to plug an eithernet cable in and when launching Safari, it brought up diagostics again but connected via ethernet. After about a minute of use, I unplugged the ethernet and I remained on. When connected via ethernet, the airport strength indicator went back again - that is why I unplugged the ethernet cable.
    Important to note that I did NOT reboot the router.
    Odd for sure.

  • Express and lost wireless connection

    I use a wireless connection through my mac for my interent. I have had no problems with my airport express running through my stereo in the past. However, i just encrypted, locked, secured, passworded (whatever you want to call it) my wireless connection. I no longer can connect to my airport express. I just get the amber blinking light. I know there is something I need to tweek, I am not sure what. My internet provider was no help. Any suggestions?

    vandy101, welcome to the discussions!
    You will need to open AirPort Utility - Manual Setup to adjust some settings on the Express. Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons. Select the network that you want to join or extend and you should be asked to confirm the password, etc.
    Basically, the Express must be setup with the same security, password, etc as the base station in order to connect to the network.

  • Printer lost wireless connection

    Photosmart 6510 B211a (Windows 7 64-bit) worked well 3 days ago.  Now, error message shows no wireless connection.  No changes in OS. Did the recommended troubleshooting.  Wireless network test results show "no problems found."  Shows wireless on and working, signal excellent; connectivity passed; network name found; printer settings consistent with wireless router seettings (belkin.7bd).  Tried uninstalling HP software and reinstalling; still no connection found.
    At my wits end.  Anything else I should do?

    OK, are you using security software that may have a firewall associated with it?  If so, disable the firewall temporarily as a test.

  • 10.5.2, Mac Pro with AE Card, AEBS (not Gigabit) lost wireless connection

    Since I upgraded to 10.5.2, I have been having issues with my wireless connection on my Mac Pro. Here's my setup - an 802.11n Airport Extreme Base Station (not gigabit one) with a 802.11g AEBS connected to it. the 802.11n is running on the 5GHz Spectrum only and does not share with 802.11a (so it's running 802.11n only). The 802.11g AEBS is set to run on the 2.4GHz Spectrum and is set to accept both 802.11g and 802.11b. The MacPro has an Airport Extreme Card running 802.11n. The 802.11n base station is almost next to the 2 base stations.
    Every once in a while, my Mac Pro will get disconnect to the basestation, and when I go to the Airport Signal icon, I can see both my basestation. I just have to select it again as if all of a sudden, my Mac Pro forgot which basestation it is connected to and get totally confused. It is one thing if the signal to the basestation is gone (have experienced that a few times when I have the 802.11g base station), it's something else to just get disconnected for no reason. Of course, when I select my basestation again, everything works fine (not as if it has problem re-establishing connection). This is getting a bit annoying, especially when I am trying to backup my files only to have been disconnected from the basestation. This doesn't happen every time I backup my files. It happens in random and there can be a long time without having drop the connection and then it can drop the connection 3 times in 10 minutes.
    Help!

    I have read all the other post, but got no satisfying answer other than people saying Apple really screwed up with 10.5.2 and that doesn't really resolve the problem. Plus, it seems to me that most people's problem are with a 3rd party base station rather than an AEBS. My only other option maybe to down grade my Airport Card software, because I think the problem is with the Airport Card driver that's bundled with the Mac Pro, and frankly, I am not sure if Apple is ignoring the problem or working hard on it, but in either case, it's not fast enough in term of damage control.

  • C6380 lost wireless connection; now MacBook can't find it

    I have a C6380 that keeps losing wireless connection.  I have to delete and re-install this printer about quarterly.  Connecting through a router via aircard internet.
    Q:  Can I buy wires to hardwire this wireless printer to my laptop?  If so, what do I need?
    Q: Sometimes printer sees network, other times it doesn't, is there a way to make this more consistent?
    Q: Obviously when printer drops, Mac can't find it; I've uninstalled, reinstalled so many times and at this point am tired of trying to get printer to see the network and Mac to see the printer.  Is there something on my Mac end that could lock this down for future? [sorry, I know you all are HP but had to ask]

    Here is how to set a static IP address for the printer:
    - Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
    - Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
    - Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
    - Click the Manual IP button and enter:
    192.168.0.200 for the IP address
    255.255.255.0 for the subnet
    Leave the gateway and DNS blank
    - Click 'Apply'
    Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
    After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.
