Unable to connect to new wireless network in Mountain Lion with Photosmart C4780

I have a Photosmart C4780 and have just upgraded my imac to Mountain Lion. HP are not providing new drivers for my printer as they say it will work with Mountain Lion. I have downloaded software updates. However, I have just changed my wireless network as I have a new broadband provider but am unable to connect to it. My problem is that the set up assistant software provided which I used originally to set up does not work with Mountain Lion.
Any ideas please?

I have solved my problem, I've bought an Epson. It works perfectly. If HP can treat their customers with such disinterest and contempt I don't want to give them my money.

  • I'm unable to connect to my wireless network

    I am unable to connect to my wireless network on my iphone 4.  It worked previously. My husband has no problem with his iphone connecting.

    Same here. Upgraded 2 separate iPhone 4 to iOS 5 and now both get an error that say "incorrect password" when trying to connect. iPad 1 upgraded to iOS5 and all 3 macs connect fine using same password. (Router is Apple Airport base station running 7.5.2)

  • Macbook air is unable to connect on hidden wireless network

    Dear users and support,
    I have just bought my macbook air with lion os already installed, but I am unable to connect to hidden wireless network. Is there any trick to fix it? even though I am typing the name and password it's unable to login.
    Please advice.
    tks,

    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Take all the applicable steps in this support article.  
    Step 2
    If you're running OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and take the remedial steps suggested in the summary that appears, if any. The program also generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
    Step 3
    This step will erase all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make a note of them before you begin, and recreate them afterwards. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the preference pane.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Reset the System Management Controller.

  • Unable to connect to Airport Extreme since installing Mountain Lion

    Unable to connect to Airport Extreme since installing Mountain Lion. If I go to Finder > Shared I can see it listed but then when I go to connect to it won't. I can see it in Airport Utility and connect to the internet but when I try and connect to the base station to use my hard drive / printer it won't connect?
    Tech Support tried saying it could be the devices attached don't have an update for them yet but doesn't explain why I can't connect to the base station. In their defence I can see it in airport utility so the base station does work with the OS X
    However I've just tried connecting by an ethernet cable and connects fine?

    Ok .
    Power down the base station (Mine is connected to a 4 way so i down powered base station, printer and hard drive) powered back up and now when I go to finder then look at the shared section I can view my files on the base station.
    Hope this helps

  • Unable to connect to home wireless network with my iPod touch

    I've had my iTouch for several months now and I'm still not able to connect to my wireless network at home. I've tried the resets and other suggestions I've found in the discussion groups but nothing has worked.
    I have an older Netgear Router MR814v2 and it is unsecured. It is attached to my old desktop, HP Pavilion running Windows ME, which is not able to run the itunes software. My HP laptop is where my iTouch and iTunes software is installed.
    The iTouch displays my network with good signal strength, but when I try to connect I get the "unable to join the network "NETGEAR".
    Going to my router, it does not recognize my iTouch as an attached device. Why is that and what am I missing?
    Thank you for all suggestions and your help.

    I tried powering down the router. When it's off the iTouch does not recognize the network and then when it's powered on again, the iTouch recognizes the network. Unlike the public wi-fi spots that my iTouch responds to, where all the info like IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS etc are populated in the settings...my iTouch does not populate these fields at home even though it recognizes the network. I still get the unable to connect to network error. Could it be that my router is antiquated and can not support the iTouch? Like I said earlier, my Router does not recognize the iTouch as being attached to it.

  • Unable to connect laptop to wireless network

    My MacBook Pro will not connect to my wireless network, but my iPad does so I know it must be a problem with my computer rather than the network. Any suggestions?
    I'm not sure if there is some obscure setting that I need to change.

    Give us more information, please.
    Is your wireless network supplied by your ISP, your landlord, your own router, or something else?
    What can you tell us about the settings on your wireless network? (Not the passwords.)
    Did this ever work, or is this the first time you have tried to connect the MBP to this wireless network?
    What model/year MBP is this? It has to be somewhat old if it is running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) as per your profile.

  • HP Deskjet 3050 J610 unable to connect to new wifi network

    Hi,
    I have just changed from ADSL to Cable internet and have a new modem/wifi router (Netgear).
    I am unable to get my printer to connect to the new wireless router with WPS.
    The printed network config page generated by the printer still shows my old network SSID and resetting printer doesn't clear it.
    How to proceed?
    Thanks

  • C4380 trouble connecting to new wireless network

    Hi there,
    I've just moved house, and my printer doesn't want to connect to the new wireless router.
    I've restored the network defaults, plugged, unplugged everything, re-run the setup on both MacBook and Toshiba laptop, and I don't get past the first page of wireless network configuration.
    The HP Installer finds my printer via usb cable, and I've ben trying to set up the wireless network via this link. My network name and password are all the, and then it says "Device not connected", asks me to connect via usb, and will not recognise that the usb cable is plugged in at all. So I'm stuck at this bit of the set up.
    My diagnostics summary. Fail.
    Radio on. Pass.
    Radio working. Pass.
    Ethernet cable not plugged in. Pass.
    Network name found. Fail
    MAC address displayed, everything else not applicable or not run.
    The printer was previously connected to a d-link router, set up via my MacBook. The new wireless router is a TC7200.U but I don't know anything about it.
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you.

    Let's try this.  Make and model of router?  Set a static IP in the printer outside the DHCP range of the router.  Remove all security on the router temporarily.    Change SSID to TEST.  Now connect to your new SSID TEST with no security.   R U successful?  If yes, go back and change your SSID to what you want and try to connect to that SSID.  If successful go back and add your WPA2-AES security and try to connect again.

  • 3510 all in one having trouble connecting to new wireless network

    Ok - just to update, at least the drivers are downloadable now ... I'll see if that resolves my issue. 

    Hi guys.  I just switched to a new modem through my ISP (Rogers) that has a built in router and a much faster connection.  (Previously, this 3510 printer was working just fine over my network with a modem and a router that was separate.)  My computer is hooked into the internet via a direct cable and everyone else in the household connects via wireless, which has been set up and works well.  For some reason though, my 3510 refuses to play nice with the modem and connect to the network.   I've tried plugging it in via usb cable, then going into the settings and clicking on the "convert a usb connected printer to wireless" option.  I hit "yes, access the computer or router", then next, it finds my wireless network with no trouble and I type in the required password and "next" - it then takes a while to go through it's "setting up printer on network" .... and then after a while, I get a "MAC address filtering may be enabled on your wireless router" error.  There IS no MAC filtering.  I have "allow all" set on the router.  This shouldn't be an issue.   Has anyone else had this problem?  Is it just a thing with the newer modem/router combos and these older HP printers?  I tried to update the driver, but your website doesn't seem to be letting folks do that at the moment (some error you're fixing, it says?). If you have any suggestions on how I could get past this problem, I'd really appreciate it.  It's driving me NUTS.  Thanks!  All the best, -- Jodi

  • CISCO WIP310 unable to connect to any wireless network

    Hi all,
    I just purchased a brand new WIP310 phone. I followed User Guide instructions on how to join the phone to a wireless network but I always get a "failure connecting to the router" message. I do have a CISCO 1841 with HWIC-AP-G-E card and I created an open SSID for the phone. The SSID is actually not broadcasted, but I get the same failure message from the phone even when the SSID is broadcasted. The SSID is completely open, no security at all. I tried switching the Dot11Radio Interface to any possible radio channel, from 1 to 13. Again same result. The phone is running firmware 5.0.8 and when I try to upgrade it, I get a success message from the gui, but rebooting the phone always shows the same old firmware. Any idea? I even tried several Access Point with the same bad result. Thanks

    Hi Marco,
    actually it took me quite a long time to understand what the problem was. I found that on my CISCO AP i had to put "payload-encapsulation dot1h" on the radio interface to get the WIP310 communicate with the AP.
    By the way It seems to me that the phone is a little buggy from the wireless point of view. Sometimes i have to try several times before getting the phone connected to the AP. Once the phone gets connected it's pretty stable, but getting it connected it's a nightmare :-)
    Try with the above ption if you have a Cisco AP. Also try different channels on the AP...it might help
    Hope this will help you
    regards
    Nicola

  • Why is my iphone 4 unable to connect to my wireless network?

    When I try to join my wireless network it say ' unable to join network' . I had no problem connecting with my laptop.

    Try rebooting the router. Just unplug the power for a few seconds and reconnect. It does no harm.

  • Macbook (10.4.11) unable to connect to one wireless network

    We have one student who is unable to connect to our student wireless network. He's using a Macbook (black) with 10.4.11 and all updates. He's got a stock Airport card. We have an Airport Extreme broadcasting the network. Other students are able to connect without any problem. He's able to connect to our teacher's network without any problem.
    When we try to connect his airport to the student network, it reports "There was an error joining the AirPort network 'Riverstone Students'." No further information is provided. I've tried removing it from his preferred networks, removing the key from the keychain, and reconnecting, but no change.
    Any suggestions gratefully received!

    Just found out a little info about my work network. We are using a SMC Network 8014 W-G broadband modem and a Linksys WAP11 Wireless Access Point, and the security is WEP. I have tried to login to the device webpage to check/adjust settings but nobody here knows the password and "admin" doesn't work. I really don't want to do a hard reset and take the chance of screwing up the network for everybody in the office (apparently it was quite complicated to set up when they first installed it, I wasn't around then). Does anybody have any other ideas? Thanks

  • Unable to connect to Office Wireless Network (802.1x) after Windows Update

    Hi, my notebooks are on Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit. We have only recently started Windows Updates.
    We are on a Wireless network 802.1x.
    In the past, we are able to do the following steps :
    1. Open the "connections are available" window by clicking on the wireless icon (signal bars with yellow sun)
    2. Right click on the desired network and choose properties
    3. Change settings (eg. MEAP or use local Windows credentials etc)
    4. Click connect to connect
    Now, from the "connections are available" window, when we right click on the desired Network, only "connect" is shown.
    In this case, I cannot connect to the network as the settings are wrong, if I cannot connect to the network how do I change the settings ?
    Please kindly advise

    Hi,
    I agree with britishdhez.
    In addition, I would like to confirm which update caused this issue. Is it a driver update? I suggest installing driver update from the manufacturer's website.
    You can also reinstall the wireless driver:
    a. Click Start, type "devmgmt.msc" (without quotation marks) in the Search bar and press Enter.
    b. Expand "Network adaptor".
    c. Right click on your network card and then click Uninstall
    d. Remove the driver software at the same time.
    After that, restart the computer and reinstall the network card driver.
    Meanwhile, you may run the Network troubleshooter to see if it can help diagnose and solve your problem:
    Using the Network troubleshooter in Windows 7
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-sg/windows7/using-the-network-troubleshooter-in-windows-7
    Also, please remove the wireless network profile for a test. 
    Delete a profile
    At the command prompt ( Win+ R-->CMD ), type:
    netsh wlan delete profile name="ProfileName"
    For you reference: Netsh Commands for Wireless Local Area Network (wlan)

  • Unable to connect to unprotected wireless network

    A couple of months ago, I upgraded to Snow Leopard (10.6.4) from Tiger with the Mac Box Set. Ever since then, I have had a pretty mysterious problem: the wireless internet in my apartment, only for MY computer, is extremely unreliable, allowing me to connect about 5-10% of the time.
    I have 3 roommates, running Leopard, Tiger, and Windows Vista. They have all had no problems throughout my battle with our router. The default protection was WEP,and I had read in some forums that snow leopard has problems with WEP, so I changed the security to WPA. That worked for a bit, but a day or two later, no chance.
    I can always see the network as an option, see that it has a significantly strong signal, and am just not able to connect. I guess pretty much what happens if you type in the wrong password.
    So, after this disappointing turn, we decided to try it with no password at all. Great. That worked too. For a day or so. Then, same problem. Can't connect, although my computer obviously sees that the network is active.
    This is probably my favorite part: when I run diagnostics or setup, I am told that I might have the wrong password. Oh, the frustration!
    I have dumped preferences, deleted locations, deleted airport, etc etc to no avail. As with the network tooling, it occasionally works for a day or a few hours and then the problem returns.
    The other three computers in the house have no problem connecting. Full connection. So odd.
    Even stranger? My computer connects just fine everywhere else. WPA2,802.1x, WEP. It's just at my house.
    I've also tried changing the channel, which has worked, again, sometimes for a day or so, sometimes not at all.
    Oh, also lovely - occasionally, it just mysteriously works. IE, it has not connected for a week, I turn it on, and it's magically connected. No changes to settings, no restarting even. (which I have obviously also tried).
    At this point, I am convinced it's haunted, becuase, knowledge of wireless technology or not, there seems to be very little logic in the situation.
    I've talked to the router people, service people, etc, read the manuals, etc etc, but the people are all sure it's my computer because my roommates' computers work, but I'm sure it has something to do with them, because I can connect elsewhere. So any tips on router settings I may not have thought of are also welcome. Very confusing.
    please help!

    Try Static IP address and update to 10.6.5 with combo update.

  • Unable to connect to home wireless network

    Hi -
    I just got my 16mb Iphone 3G and tired to get it to sign on to the wifi network at home. It sees the ssid but just won't sign on. I have a open network, so there shouldn't be anything that will prevent it from getting on to the network. Please advise

    When you try to select your network name on your iPhone, does the phone then show a tick next to the network name? If it does, then tap the clue arrow and see if your phone has a registered IP address. If it doesn't, then check out the various articles on the apple support site.
    If it does show an IP address but still won't connect to the internet, itunes or app shop etc, then it may be a wlan b/g problem that people have recently started mentioning. Check out the other posts for more info on that.
