Wireless conection issue

Configuration information:
Officejet Pro 8600
Windows 8 and 7 on network
Cisco Router
several Belkin router extensions.
Prior to installing router extensions, no problems existed. If this is in fact part or all of the issue, I have no idea how to address. When trying to setup printer wirelessly, the printer finds the router but will not accept credentials. No other device has this issue (several laptops, ipads and iphones) If I eliminate passwords for router, I can setup wirelessly. My current work around is simply to connect printer directly to router which appears to solve the problem, but would still prefer wireless function to operate appropriately.
Test sheet shows PASS on Wireless working, but "Not Run" on connected and "Fail" on No Filtering.
Based on various trouble shooting I have done, I'm sure it is not a Router issue althought it may be a router extension issue - can't tell.
Would appreciate any suggestions

  • Netgear DG834GT Wireless Conectivity Issues with MacBook Pro

    Just purchased a Macbook Pro (my first MAC !!!) and I can't get it to connect wirelessley to my Netgear Router using any of the encryption options. I connect using WEP to my Windows Notebook and can connect the MAC using the cable but need to connect wirelessly . Help please in words of one sylable

    Can it connect with WEP or WPA disabled? Don't worry a band of rogues will not descend on you for the 5 minutes you check that out. Diagnose if it works at all first. If you have then say so.
    Try preceding the WEP key (which I presume is F6D3A0C2...etc.) with a $ sign.
    Note WEP can be broken in under 5 minutes so you are using really poor security. WPA works on your mac and is so much more secure, and the pass phrase (e.g. my dog spot and cat harry have blue feet) are easy to remember and type in.

  • OfficeJet Pro L7590 - wireless printer issue

    Hi,
    I have a 2008 OfficeJet Pro L7590 printer. I'm just now trying to get my printer to print wirelessly and I'm having multiple issues. I lost the disk for installation, but downloaded the installation via hp.com/support
    After installing it, I tried to connect it wireslessly. On the final step, it says "
    Unable to communicate with your printer. Not all diagnostic tests could be performed. Check cable connections and then retry."
    I've checked all my cords and everything and they are plugged in correctly! BUT here's the thing. When I go to my start menu, and click control pannel → network and then click on a tab, such as "Network and Sharing Center, Connect to a Netowk, or set up a connection or nework. The window absolutely freezes and I'm not able to click on it at all. Also, I don't see a wireless conection icon on the bottom bar, right corner. (not sure what that's called) All i see are two computer screens and a red X ontop of them (icon)
    I really need to connect my printer wirelessly, so I can use my phone, ipads and ipod touches! Please help. I've spent so many hours trying to figure this out!
    HP doesn't offer me anymore help because it's out of warrenty

    Hello iAliciaa.
    I understand you are trying to installing your Officejet L7590 and you are receiving a message indicating "unable to communicate
    with your printer". Are you connecting this printer Ethernet or wireless?
    Please follow this entire HP document if you are connecting your printer using an Ethernet connection: Printer Is Not Found During Installation.
    I understand completely what you are talking about, but could you verify what type of Operating System you have?
    Click on this website to find out: Windows.
    Look forward to hear from you.

  • How can I create a wireless conection?

    My Sattellite pro A10 is supposed to come wireless enabled.
    Up till now I haven't used it, but am trying to connect to wireless internet.
    Windows help and user manuals point me to network conections and to click on wireless connections and search for available connections, but there is and has never been a wireless connection icon in my network connections (running windows XP service pack 2 btw)
    Can anyone suggest why and how I can create a wireless conection. The enabling switch on the front is on.

    Hello
    This unit is not known to me but I have found information that WLAN is optional. Please check if there is WLAN card. You can check it in device manager under Network adapters.
    If there is no WLAN card you must buy one.

  • Is there a fix for the MBP wireless dropping issue?

    I began to experience the Macbook Pro dropping wireless connectivity on my very 1st Apple in 2008.  At the end of the day my machine was replaced with a new Macbook Pro mid 2010.  It appeared to be working just fine until about 2-3 months ago when I started dropping my wireless printer connection.  I searched the internet hoping for a driver update from HP or something from Apple and each time I found something, the problem still existed.  I even thought that by upgrading to Lion would resolve any issues that I have with my MBP wireless connectivity issue.  After upgrading to buying a new router, new printer and upgrading to Lion; the wireless dropping issue still remains unresolved!  I know there are several hundred in not thousands of people who are having the same problem so what are we supposed to do?
    When my 1st MBP was replaced in 2010 I had to stop working because I was diagnosed with "Failed Back Surgical Syndrome" and was in the process of applying for disability.  Something in the back of my mind said that I needed to purchase Apple Care for this new replacement however I had used all of my savings & retirement to sustain life for me and my family that there was nothing for Apple Care.  If it weren't for my church and family I am not sure what I would do during the 18 months of no income while waiting for a decision only to receive an appeal until I findly stood in front of an Administrative Law Judge who heard my case and granted me disability.  Besides there was no way I could ask anyone for money to purchase a warranty for a top of the line laptop while the country was falling off an economical cliff.
    I broke down and called Apple Support and was told that I qualified for technical assistance regarding the upgrade to Lion a few weeks ago.  The tech on the phone had me run some disk utility tests and had me repair permissions which she said could be the cause of the problem.  I willingly went along with her in hopes that this was indeed the fix.  However, within 10 minutes of hanging up the phone my MBP began to drop it's wireless connection to my new HP printer and also the Internet.  Hence my question above is what I am really looking to have answered!  What is the fix to this problem that so many people are having issues with?  I couldn't afford to purchase Apple Care back in 2010 and I can't afford to purchase a new 2011 machine today if that truly is the fix!
    I will be disabled for the remainder of my life and I have grown dependent upon my computer to stay in touch with friends and colleges from work.  I worked for the IT Group at Wynn Resorts and I can say that the type of service Appple is providing it's customers is not what I learned over the past 25 years with Mr. Wynn.  Why can't Apple get the simple concept that it's customers are it's life line and keeps them in business.  I need help and I don't know what to do nor where to turn.  It would be different if Apple acknowledged the issue and said they were working on it however they aren't.  I plead to Apple to help me fix my notebook so I can stay connected to the outside world vs. couped up inside my home.
    Best Regards,
    Scott Leavitt

    I am simply lookig for some help not an argument.  I am not an RF specialist however have setup a few wireless networks in my tenure at Wynn Resorts.  I fully agree that wireless networking is an art and a science however the powers that be in Network Land have toughted wireless networking is the easiest and quickest way to get two computers to talk with one another.  As I previously said I have already turned one (1) MBP in for this problem and Apple decided to replace it because they could not fix the problem with my particular MBP.  This MBP was running Leopard when the problems started
    I am having a hard time believeing that there are several other devicces in my home that depend on a wireless network to operate and my MBP is the only one having an issue.  I took this a step further and decided to see what would happen if I tried to connect wirelessly via Fusion.  In Windows 7 I am able to print and scan to my hearts content without any issues.  I am able to browse the internet as much as I want.  I close Fusion and try to connect to my printer via wireless and nothing.
    In order to get Apple to help do I need to get a Network Analyzer and capture packets when I have these problems?  Out of the 1000 + posts is there a consolidation of which answer is the best?  BTW I am accessing the internet via a wireless connection using Fusion and Windows 7.
    In response to Linc's comments, I will look at the router specifications however I did not qualify that these devices are not using the wireless connection at the same time.  Right now I would guess there are maybe two (2) or three (3) at the most that are actively transmitting / receiving information. --  Thanks

  • How do I extend a wireless conection? for apple

    How do I extend a wireless conection? In Apple.

    Depends on what brand of router you have. If you have an Airport Extreme Base Station or Time Capsule, then you can use an Airport Express to extend the network wirelessly for use by a device using Ethernet, e.g., a computer or network printer. The latest Airport Express has two Ethernet ports available.
    Alternatively, you can run an Ethernet line from the router to the Airport Express and create a new network that is distant from the router. This would work on an AEBS, Time Capsule, or a non-Apple router.

    I have a dsl internet conection with a download speed of .66 mbps.  I would like to watch netflix with a wireless conection to apple tv.  What is the required internet speed?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Netflix recommend a minimum connection speed of 0.5 Mbps, however at that speed many of the other features of the Apple TV will be painfully slow.

  • Wireless connecion issues using a macbook

    Hi,
    RE: Wireless connecion issues using a macbook
    After doing some google searches, I have come to understand that there is a bug with OSX power management when running on battery which impacts the wireless connection of the macbook, though Apple geniuses are unaware of any such issue. Please see: http://kristopherjohnson.blogspot.com/2006/08/macbook-wireless-connection-drops. html and type in "macbook wireless connection problems" in google for many other discussions on this issue.
    For all those who are having wireless connection issues with a macbook:
    Plug in the macbook to use mains power (not the battery) to verify that you are impacted by the same bug (I even find sometime unable to connect to the router when on battery so have resorted to starting the machine with mains power plugged in). If that is the problem then here is a work around (taken from above blog):
    Open the terminal window and type in the following command: ping -i 5 google.com
    (this will ping the google domain every 5 seconds and maintain the wireless activity thus a connection).
    I am surprised that Apple are not acknowledging this well known and widely reported bug and fixing the issue. In my case, I dont mind plugging the machine into mains most of the time and that has resolved the problem, otherwise I hope the above pinging works for you.
    I discovered the workaround after ditching my old DLink router (though it had done its time) and buying an Airport extreme (£120), a trip to the Apple store (40 miles drive), trying several different people's machine on my network (frustration) and finally google to rescue, more specifically Kristopher Johnson's blog.
    NOTE: My macbook worked fine in the Apple store while on battery power which was frustrating but apparently the problem only arises when connecting to consumer grade networks and not commercial ones, which I dont understand technically.

    you can use but you will not get full screen on HDMI output.
    Sometimes width or height of the screen was not completely used by ur mac other then that everything would be good.
    You need to buy HDMI Output cable for mac something like this

  • My Pcs don't see any wireless conection to airport extreme

    I have a Fujitsu laptop and an HP entertainment center with media center. Both are wi-fi enabled. I installed the airport extreme station on my imac G5 it works great. But when I tried to connect the pc wirelessly they don't see any wireless conection. What I have to do was conect the entertainment center with a network cable to the base station, so I can share my internet conection. Despite I put the base station right in front the pcs, they dont see it. I want to have real wireless in my apartment.

    Hi Lisetica:
    When you set up your Airport Exterme Base Station, did you select "Create a Closed Network"? If so, this will prevent your SSID from being broadcasted.

  • Pavilion wireless keyboard issues

    I have just bought a new Pavilion 500-250ea desktop + Pavilion 22xi monitor. Nice hardware, shame about having to have Windows 8.1 though :-)
    The desktop shipped with a wireless mouse and a wireless keyboard (Part No 697345-031). I've spent the last couple of days with all the kit on the desk, setting everything up and transferring all my files etc. All going nicely until I got to the stage where I was able to take my old machine away and put the new one in the space UNDER the desk (wooden top). Now the mouse is erratic and the keyboard often just 'hangs' for a while. Surely the wireless range ought to be better than that and not bothered simply by an intervening desk???? Or is 'deskTOP' meant to be taken literally.....
    Also, the keyboard has NO CapsLock or NumLock lights !!! This plays havoc when trying to enter passwords :-( Is there any utility perhaps to display the CapsLock and/or NumLock status on the screen??

    Hello Nemo2000, 
    I have read your post on how your desktop is experiencing erratic control of the wireless keyboard and the mouse with the desktop hidden away, and I would be happy to assist you!
    To begin, I recommend moving the desktop to a more open area to test for spacial interference. To expand on this, I suggest following this document on Wireless Printing Common Questions. Under "Wireless Connection Issues" please select "How do I improve a weak signal from my wireless router?" on obstructions.
    In regards to the caps and num lock keys, I understand there are no indication lights in the top right-hand corner. On most programs, however, you will be given an indication that the cap locks are on for passwords. A good example of this is when you log onto your computer, it will tell you if the caps lock is on or not.
    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

  • ATV2 OFFICIALLY rolled back to 4.2.1 due to wireless N issues

    My ATV prompted me to update it an hr ago, I did, and when it came back up, 4.3 was gone and 4.2.1 was there.. I plugged it into itunes and it said it was up to date... I called apple support and they verified that JUST the ATV2 has been rolled back due to Wireless N and other wireless compatability issues.

    I had 4.3 on my ATV for weeks. it even said 4.3 in the about screen. You do not know what YOU are talking about.
    Once my ATV went to 4.3 a few weeks ago, it could no longer connect to my N network until I turned WMM on, and even then it kept dropped off. So I had to switch my router back to A/G mode.
    Yes, there WAS.. and if you don't belive me, ill be HAPPY to show you the ATV2 4.3 IPSW I've had sitting on my desktop for weeks
    You are wrong. Take my advice and stop now before you embarrass yourself.

  • I am having wireless connectivity issues with my time capsule

    Over the last 3 days my wireless devices have been having issues with connectivity.
    Network setup:
    Modem - Motorola SB5102 Cable Modem
    1 TB Time Capsule 802.11n (second generation)
    The devices are approximately 3 feet apart.
    Wired Device:
    Mac Pro (2008 build) running OSX 10.6.8, Airport Utility 5.6.1
    Wireless Devices:
    Playstation 3
    Macbook Air
    iPhone 5c
    iPhone 4
    I am having issues with internet connectivity. The wireless signal strength is fine as all devices can find the network. However when connected to the network accessing the internet on the Macbook Air, or either iPhone is slow and streaming services such as Netflix cannot connect. I have intermitant connectivity to the Playstation Network on the PS3.
    I have wired both the Macbook Air and PS3 directly to the Time Capsule and have no issues, internet is accessible and streaming services are fine.
    I have power cycled all the devices (Time Capsule, macbook, iphones, PS3, modem) to no result.
    I am looking for any other suggestions that may help me with my wireless connectivity issue.

    A Gen2 TC is probably on its last gasp.. and it is well overdue for replacement.
    If you want to get more life out of it you normally need to repair or replace the internal power supply.. This is not done by apple or any of their repair centres.
    Just do ebay search and you will find sellers with replacement supplies.
    Otherwise to test, do a full factory reset..
    I would also downgrade the firmware.. 7.5.2 will work just as well for you and has less bugs than 7.6.x firmware.
    To downgrade hold down the option key when you select firmware version.
    The Factory Reset universal
    Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on..  all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. The time is not important.. it is the front LED rapid flashing that indicates you are in factory mode.
    Release reset.
    If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have released reset at some point and try again.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

  • WRT54G V3.0 Wireless Speed Issue - ping example

    Hello:
    I have been having very odd wireless connectivity issues with my router. The issue happens randomly, and from what I can tell, it is not based on interference.
    Basically my wireless connection always stalls. Sometimes it quits all together. I get the exact same result weather I am one foot or twenty feet away from the router.
    This can clearly be displayed by pinging my device:

    (it should be noted that if i plug directly into the router via ethernet I get perfect pings / no stalls like above)
    My current Firmware Version is: v4.30.5
    Here is what I've tried changing/testing and had the exact same results with:
    -Tried every wireless channel- and i've tried wireless G only.
    -Reset back to the default firmware/flashed the device/reinstalled everything etc etc- many times
    -disabled any wireless security
    -turned off all bluetooth devices, wireless phones or cordless phones in the area (no microwaves are running).
    If i use another wireless router (i borrowed my AP from work one night), it works perfectly, no issues. This is why I think it may be a hardware issue with my router. (There are other wireless routers in the area, but my testing router from work is just fine with the others).
    Is it possible I have a hardware issue with this WRT54G?
    If not, what other things can i try?
    Thank you for any help you may have.
    Happy New Year!
    -roscolux

    i cannot think of any other settings besides the advanced wireless settings

  • Iphone/IOS 6 and Enterprise Wireless Networks Issue

    Hi there,
    Our company runs Cisco wireless using WPA2 Enterprise and AD Authentication. Now we currently have multiple vendor phones/laptops working fine including Apple Macbook Pro's, Apple Iphone 4s, Samsung Galaxy S2/S3 working on the wireless without issue.
    However Ive been seeing issues with Iphone 5s and an Ipad now as well running IOS 6 where it just wont connect to the network. I am using Iphone configuration utility to install a Wireless profile with the certificate/AD credentials onto the Apple device.
    I just loaded the profile on an Iphone 5 and it worked straight away.
    However on ipad and other iphone 5's this is what happened, it associated to the Wireless but never got an IP address so never finishes connecting. just sits on spinning wheel.

  • T61 Wireless Connectivity Issue - can not connect with secure wireless sites

    I have a T61 using Windows XP. The internal wireless card was factory installed and has not been upgraded.
    My home Internet is Comcast high-speed.
    When I take my laptop to a coffee shop, business or other location with a secure wireless network that requires a password, I have not been able to log on. I can see the wireless networks available and can click on the appropriate one, but I never get a window/pop-up box/screen in order to allow me to enter the wifi network's user name and password.
    Is this a firewall issue, wireless card issue...or?
    I can access unsecured wireless networks where a password is not needed.

    Hi lisapapp!
    One more thing to check: Is your Windows XP up to date? Older XP releases do not support the newer wireless encryption types which are now in common use (WPA, WPA2). Make sure you have SP3.
    I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!
