Network Wired Loses Connection HP 8600

As the title states, losing connection to computer from printer. Strange thing is that a computer connected same way stays conencted.
Logistics:
Wired connection to a Cradlepoint mbr95 router. Wired from router to switch, wired to both computers.
Computer states ready for Printer and Fax under my computers but when I try to print, states unable to communicate to printer.
I have set an ip address for the printer and I have updated the printer ip address under windows, no change. But the other computer with same settings works.
Using Windows xp pro xp3 2gb ram

Hi Jim1590,
Thank you for your information. For diagnostic purposes, it is best to test another Ethernet Cable without the switch. If you still run into the same issue, then it would rule out that the cable is the cause and move on. With the 8600 is it plugged direct to a wall outlet? This will make sure that the printer is getting the required amount of power to function properly.
As well for diagnostic purposes have you tried connecting your printer wireless to the router? I have included the steps here for setting up the wireless connection on the printer.
1. Press the Right Arrow button the display screen of the printer
2. Press the Setup Icon on the printer display
3. In the Setup Menu and select Network
4. In the Network Menu and select Wireless Setup Wizard
5. Follow through the instructions that are on the display screen.
(If you see an option for PRESSING THE WPS BUTTON on the router, please DO NOT DO THIS. There will be an option in the bottom right corner of the printer display that will say SKIP.
The other option that you do have is to disable the Scheduled on off option for the printer. This will just stop the printer from turning completely off, the printer will still go into sleep mode. First you need to obtain the IP Address for the printer. To do this you will need to do:
1. Press the Right Arrow button the display screen of the printer
2. Press the Setup Icon on the printer display
3. In the Setup Menu and select Network
4. In the Network Menu and select Print Network Configuration
Once you do have the IP Address for the printer. You will need to open Internet Explorer. In the address bar you will need to type in the IP address for your printer, and press Enter. This should pull up a page specific to your printer. Along the top if the page select the Setting Tab. Down the left hand side select Scheduled On/Off. Once that page does open make sure that both option for disabled are selected. Then close the page down and power cycle the printer for 30 seconds.
Please let me know how this works out for you, thank you.

SCCM remote control keeps dropping out when another network adaptor loses connection

Hey guys,
Hopefully someone will be able to help me out
at work, we are running SCCM 2012, and I use SCCM 2012 config manager to manage the clients etc
We have a particularly annoying issue with SCCM remote control; it constantly drops out when a network connection on the client machine disconnects or changes state, even if its not interface I'm remote controlling through
Here's an example for you:
a laptop with a wired, and wireless connection:
I remote control the machine through the wired network address (lets say 192.168.0.1), but if the wireless connection drops out (someone turns it off or it breaks) the remote control client will kick me off, lock the screen, and I have to wait 20-30 seconds
before it will accept my connection again
This happens with any network adaptor that's installed on the client
Here is a copy of the logs re-creating this issue: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nu4w28d44xky3rg/CmRcService.log
(I've edited it to take out usernames and IP addresses as they are publicly accessible)
So my question, does any one know how to fix this issue? I see it uses WMI, is there anyway to get WMI to ignore an interface?
Thanks heaps,
Harry

This is going to be done by design for security reasons. If the network connect for whatever reason is down the pc will automatically be locked.

Airport express as network extension for a time capsule lose connection repeatedly

Hello,
I boght recently two airport express in order to extent my timecapsule wifi. Installation as a network extension was no problem thanks airport software.
But both AP express repeatedly lose connection, sometimes after hours, sometimes after some minutes, even if they are just a few meters away from the time capsule.
What is the reason and what can I do to avoid this annoyingly behaviour?
Thanks for helping!

Hi - it can be used as an wired or wireless extender of your time capsule network or it can just join the network wirelessly and provide a remote ethernet connection - in all cases the USB port can be used for a printer only.

Error: there is a problem connection to the GPRS service in your registered home network, error trying to make data connection. this may be casued by a voice call, a wired activesync connection or inncorrect network setting

I have a Time Capsule as my router. I can connect wirelessly to the network and internet with my MBPr, but my Mac Mini will only connect to the network wired or wirelessly. Airport on it sees the internet as green, but will not connect.

I have the Time Capsule hooked to a wireless modem. It uses a static IP, which is put in and running. The MBPr connects, as well as my iPhone 5, to the internet and network without problem. I can see the Mac Mini, external drive attached to it, and the Time Capsule. The Mac Mini connects to the network wired or wirelessly, but not to the internet. On wireless, using AirPort the Internet shows green, but no connection when I open Safari. The settings under network settings are identical except for LAN IP between the Mac Mini and the MBPr. I was hoping someone might have an idea of what was going on. Before I moved the Time Capsule was on Bridge mode from another router, now it is on DHCP and NAT for the internal network.

No, its is connected direct to the providers fiber box.

IPad3 loses connection to home network and same happens to laptops.

I purchased the new IPad a week ago. Since then, I often lose connection to home network. Cannot join network unless I power off and on the modem/router. This also hapens every morning. The same is now happening with our wireless laptops. Never had any problems all these years until the iPad was introduced to our network. Our Internet provider confirmed that modem/router protocols were set per advice from Apple Support and they did additional tweaking but problem persists. I am thinking of getting a new modem and router but wonder if it is worth it. Has anyone had similar problems where their other devices are having the same connection issues as the iPad? Thanks.

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.

Wired PC loses connection with WRT54GS but wireless stays on.

Occasionally my wired PC connection through the WRT54GS stops. I power down the router and everything comes back OK after powering backup. The wireless signal continues to work even though the wired signal fails. Is there something I need to change to eliminate this problem? My firmware on the WRT54GS is 1.50.6.
Thanks

I have the same problem only the wireless unit loses connectivity. Each by itself through the router works fine. Have narrowed it down to the fact that the two computers have different operating systems which causes trouble for the router. Have not found a fix yet though.

Daughter's new Mac laptop loses connection after about 15minutes on her apartment cable provider network. Her roommates older Mac works ok as did my daughters olde MacBook what could Be causing the shutoff?

Daughters new macBook loses connectivity on wifi at her apartment after about 15 minutes but works fine on other wifi networks. Her roommates older MacBook works fine on wifi as did my daughters older MacBook. what could Be the cause?---mmannaxx

Assuming this does not happen at a specific time of day but randomly when ever she connects, she may need to power cycle the modem/router, with the MBP off, after it reestablishes connection and IP addresses, then power up the MBP and reconnect.

Every 2 days i lose connection to home network and when i put the network key in (with the caps) it dismisses it

every 2 days i lose connection ,since they did software upgrade in oct. now it just dismisses me when i insert the network key for password. i am using the caps

AirPort in Intel iMac loses connection and does not see network

I bought an Intel iMac in the summer of '06. I had no problems connecting my airport card to my house wireless network which uses an AirPort Extreme Base Station.
In september I brought my iMac to college and used an AirPort Express as my base station. I had no problems other than that the computer did not automatically reconnect to the network upon start up.
In december I returned home and configured the AirPort Express (located on the main level of the house) to extend the network of the AirPort Extreme (located upstair in the bedroom next to my iMac).
Lately the iMac loses connectivity to the wireless network randomly while the computer is on, even in the middle of using it. Not only does it lose the signal but does not list my network when i click the airport signal icon on the top bar of the screen. Once in a while it will have it listed but will give me an error when trying to connect. The only way I have of fixing the problem is to restart the computer.
I know the airport base station works fine and the network is still there becasue I have a PowerBook G4 that I will put right next to the iMac and the PowerBook will still be connected to the network.
Can someone help?

I have a very similar problem. My machine's airport connection has always been a little flaky, but it's always gone on working. However, yesterday I turned on WEP 128 bit encription. It now connects for a few minutes and then I see the signal strength gradually die until it goes off completely. There are then two ways to get it back working: 1. close the lid, then open it again; 2. tun off the airport, then turn it on again. When I do that the signal strength suddenly comes on full after about 3 seconds. The G4 iMac I have doesn't suffer from this problem. I am using a netgear access port as the base station.

Airport Extreme joining a network and sharing wired internet connections

Hi everyone,
My new ISP installed their modem/wifi router (Sagemcom) in my home two months ago. Since I share HDDs over the wifi network, I installed my airport extreme near the modem/wifi router and used it to "extend the network", and it worked fine until recently. It stopped working suddently with the yellow light flashing. When I tried to reconfigure it, I always got errors, needing to reset it even to be able to see it again in Airport utility. Honestly, I have absolutely no idea why it stopped working. I tried connecting the Airport Extreme with an ethernet wire to the modem with the same result. So, I decided to move the airport extreme in my living room and use it to share the internet connection with my PS3, slingbox and Apple TV, telling myself that a partly wired connection would improve the signal (since I also had an Airport Express in the living room extending the network before everything stopped working). Now, everything works; the green light is on, HDDs are available on the wifi network, I can only connect to the Sagemcom routeur but, meh, what do you want, BUT, my slingbox, Apple TV and PS3 can't connect to the airport extreme through a wired connection.
Two questions:
1- Is it possible to share a wired internet connection with my Slingbox, PS3 and Apple TV from an Airport Extreme that has joined the network? If yes, what do I need to do to make it work?
2- Any idea why my first setup stopped working?
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot,
Frank

1- Is it possible to share a wired internet connection with my Slingbox, PS3 and Apple TV from an Airport Extreme that has joined the network? If yes, what do I need to do to make it work?
Unfortunately, the Ethernet ports are not enabled when the AirPort Extreme is configured to "join" a wireless network.
Ironically, the less expensive AirPort Express does have the ability to "join" a wireless network and deliver an Ethernet signal at the port(s).
2- Any idea why my first setup stopped working?
None that you probably have not already thought about. The most commons cause is a sudden power outage, or even quick power "blip" can sometimes result in the Extreme to losing some of its configuration settings. Otherwise, gremlins are hard to catch.

Connect to Win (wired) network from MacBook connecting via AirPort Express

Hi,
I have a MacBook (OS 10.4.10) that I was connecting to my Windows network via a Linksys WRK54G Wireless router (configured as a WAP), which in turn was connected to a Netgear FVS318 VPN Firewall Router. The FVS318 connects to my cable modem and 2 Windows XP Pro PCs. The Linksys WRK54G has been flaking out, so I replaced it with an Airport Express. My MacBook and a Windows XP Pro laptop are both able to connect to the internet via the airport express, and they are both able to ping the IP addresses of my (wired network connected) Win XP Pro PCs. However, the PCs no longer show up under "Network" on the MacBook, nor can I connect to the shared directories on the (wired) Windows PCs from the Win XP Pro laptop (via Start Menu => Run => enter IP address). I have not found any answers so far either using Google or Apple Support website. Surely this is possible -- what am I missing? Thanks.

Hello sborisch. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
If I understand your network configuration, you just need to configure the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) as a bridge...
To set up the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) as a bridge, either connect to the AX's wireless network or temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, using the AirPort Admin Utility (located in the \Applications\Utilities folder), make these settings:
Network tab
o Distribute IP addresses (unchecked)
o Apply the new setting.

15" MacBook Pro randomly loses connection to my AirPort Express wi-fi network.

My 15" MacBook Pro randomly loses connection to my AirPort Express wi-fi network. I have to switch off wi-fi on my Mac then switch on again to reconnect. Any reason why this random occurrence keeps happening which never happened before? Any solutions and fixes would also be welcomed.

In the airport utility, you can alter the radio modes... and change the channels from automatic to a manual one.
Hold down the Option key, and click on your wifi icon, it will tell you what channels are currently being used on your OSX.

This subject has been talked/written about a lot, after Lion was introduced. A solution from Apple has not yet been published, everybody is waiting.
Try for instance https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3734081?start=15&tstart=0, but there are more discussion groups with the same subject: frequently lost WiFi-connections in newer Macs running Lion or up.
