Wireless configurat​ion

Hello and happy new year to all
I have a thinkpad x61s and use wireless router for internet access.
Does anyone know if this is compatible with the new N format which is more powerful, or will I need a dual band router to deal with G format and N format.
Thanks in advance

It sounds like the printer just needs to be connected to the new network.  Changing Internet providers usually results in new equipment which is viewed as a new network.
Before continuing, it may be best to unisntall the printer software to get the most accurate results.
You will need a computer that is on the same wireless network and a USB cable for the printer.
Follow the steps for your operating system in Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection (Using an Access Point).
Provided there is no network issue, the steps for the appropriate operating system should get it on the new network.
A USB to wireless setup is used for this printer as there is a very minimal front panel which would make entering network information a little more challenging than using a computer to setup the wireless on it.

  • HP C4500 Wireless Printer Configurat​ion Issues

    Hi there,
    I've just purchsed a new C4500, and have successfully managed to install it on my desktop PC running Vista without issue. I have tried to install it on my Advent Laptop (running Vista) and I'm getting the following network function message
    Unable to communicate with your printer at this time. This may be caused by a firewall. If you are using firewall software, verify UDP port 247 is unblocked from your printer at xxx.xxx.x.xx (i.p address) to your PC
    There is also a similar message about TCP port 9100 from PC to printer having the sam problem
    I have Vista Firewall disabled, but am running Norton Internet Security. This setup is the same as my desktop, but it had no problems
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

    Norton should work with our SW.  It's one of the supported 3rd party firewalls that we test against.
    If you don't mind, mark the soluton solved so others can read what you've done.

  • Hp 5310 to mac wireless disconnect​ion using aol huawei echolife hg532 router

    I have just bought the HP Photosmart 5510 B111a as my original HP printer was not compatible with the LION 10.7.2 Mac OS
    The problem im having is that im unable to maintain a connection to my new printer. I have installed the full and latest Software and drivers from HP, I have up-dated my MAC from Apple site but so everything is as it should be.
    I spoke to HP on the phone and was advised to use the diagnostic tool but this is only for windows OS so this wouldn't work.
    So i am begging for a solution - 
    Everytime i go through the set up procedure it works wirelessly  for the maximum of one print then the next time i try to print (1 MINUTE LATER) It says unable to find printer. I have checked the settings on the printer and it says connected with the correct network name as does the Mac. Im using an AOL Router HUAWEI Echolife HG532.
    It works fine if connected with the USB cable
    If i swap the router to a Belkin router it works fine wirelessly / eprint etc but other wireless devices don't.
    I really want to sort out the Echolife issue. AOL Have said the issue is with the printer but I'm far from convinced as the Belkin works.
    I hope someone can help - Please - Neil

    Hi There,
    I have just read another forum and some one has had the same problems as me, the following is where i am athe the minute and what i type in response to him - still not sure though .....
    HI John,
    New to the conversation but im having exactly the same problems you have been encountering ! Im ready to through my Mac, router and printer out of the window, thats if the wife doesnt do it for me as shes sick of me going on about it.
    Anyway, I have just bought the printer following a OS Upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion and this is where i thought the problems started. I have been sent an new router from AOL following the usual frustrating repetable conversations and downloaded the HP 10.72 software but nearly every time i get to the disconnect the USB I get the same fault as you - unable to detect printer. If i go into my router 192.168.1.1. settings and change the channel then open  the HP utility page it will open ok and show my supply staus etc but if you close it then re-open, it is unable to find the printer
    Everything else seems to work fine, like the ePrint, the printer connects to the internet proving the printer is connected to my network but thats it......!!!!
    Basically what im asking is, can you tell me what and where from did you download the fixes Apple helped you with...
    Please help or should i also ring Apple ?
    Best regards

  • Can we connect xbee to cfp2020 controller​s serial port for wireless communicat​ion

    hi,
        i wanna do data aqcuisition using ethernet as well as wireless technologies, for that i wanna use xbee with cpf 2020.   is it possible?
    thanks in advance

    You can do it fine..
    I am guessing the wireless modem is really a router as well. When you say wireless do you mean 3g internet or 4g internet or do you mean cable or adsl and a wireless modem router.?? It is just helpful to know what you are talking about by wireless modem or wireless internet.
    You have that plugged into ethernet over power (EOP) adapters .. that is great.
    Plugged into TV again that is fine.. although I am unclear what or how it is decoding.. is it IPTV??
    Now to your specific questions.
    Now, is it possible to
    a) connect the Time Capsule to the powerline, so it can act as an access point? When connected to this powerline (ethernet) I hope I won't loose speed to the wireless connection
    Yes, the TC needs to be bridged..
    Go to manual setup of the Airport utility.. click on the internet tab.. go to connection sharing on the bottom of that page.. select off bridge mode.. update the TC.
    Now you can plug the TC into the EOP adapter. And it will work as Wireless Access Point.. WAP or short AP.. and switch.
    Plug the TV into the TC as well.. that should all work fine.
    b) will I be able to connect my digital tv-decoder to the TC without any problems? So the TC is the decoder's "ethernet port"?
    Hope this is a bit clear, as English is not my mothertongue...
    IPTV can be complicated to setup and exactly how it works will depend on the main router.. sometimes IPTV is only delivered to a specific ethernet port.. in which case the above suggestion will not work.. you can use either internet or the TV.. not both..

  • T42 Restore factory configurat​ion impossible - but recovery part exist

    Hello,
    I have a T42 (IBM bought in my business school)
    When  I bought it the PC had 4 part in the Hard Drive
    2 part visible
    - C: SYSTEM
    - E: USER DATA
    1 part hidden
    - IBM_Service W:  (the recovery part) - all the program and a 2 drive partition C and D or E
    + BIOS
    To be able to restore the factory configuation I had in the menu to start Windows Two choices
    - Start Windows normally
    - Restore factory configuration
    Due to a problem on the laptop I had to restore the factory configuration 2 or 3 times in the last two yearss. It worked well two times.
    But  Last time the Laptop did not recognize after the restoration the E: DRIVE. It was on the computer but with no name and no possibility to access it.
    I uses TESTDISK to regive a name E to this part and be able to use it and restore the data in it but during the process the Recovery part (Drive W which was hidden appeared on the System list 
    On the same time the choice "Restore factory configuration " on the list of the start of Windows disappear. I use my friend computer to put back on the list the name of the choice but this link can't restore the Factory configuration because it is no longer configurate for it.
    Is there a possibility to boot the PC on the Recovery part in order to restore the factory configuration?
    does this manipulation will keep my 2 drive configuration C: + USER DATA drive (E with all the data saved in it? That works the first two times
    Thanks in advance for your help
    This will help me very much

    Whoever told you this was mistaken.  With the exception of hardware changes (eg modem from T41 to T42) the disks within a series should work just fine (I've just recovered aT41 with my T42 CDs).  The only difference in using early T42 recovery with a later T42 is the fingerprint reader.  Later T42 disks should work just fine with an early T42.  Go ahead and use your T42 disks on her machine.

  • Does the 8500 wireless all-ion-one support AirPrint

    I bought the 8500 in late November 2010. I am getting an IPhone and want to know if I can use AirPrint with the 8500?

    Sorry...I should have used the full description. The full ID for the printer is
    Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - A909g
    I would take it, then, that it does support AirPrint.

  • NB205 and the software Wireless Communicat​ion Switch

    I have just upgraded my NB205-N210 from Windows XP to Windows 7. After running all the relevant Windows Updates and the Toshiba Software Installer for Windows 7, just about everything works great. (Note: my function keys do work in conjunction with the Flashcards utility.)
    The one problem is wireless. Some people have posted a related problem, but I think I can pin down the source more precisely. Fn+F8 cannot enable wireless, and Flashcards give the error "Wireless communication is disabled. Please turn on the Wireless communication switch." The NB205 does not have a physical switch to turn on the wireless hardware. In Windows XP, the NB205 turned wireless on and off through a software switch. Is there a version of this software switch for Windows 7? If not, does anyone know a workaround?
    (One more note, I have also tried uninstalling the adapter, but that made no difference.)

  • Admin Passord on Configurat​ion page

    My 8500A has stopped recognising my wireless connection. I have to go through setup (enter my network name and password) every time I want to print. When I print out the Network Configuration  Page , Admin Passowrd is shown as Not Set. I have restored Factory Settings and gone through the set up again but still have to reenter my network name and password in order to activate the printer.
    Also the Wireless Network Test Report print out shows every thing ok, PASS on all items under Diagnostic summary
    BTW, my Mac OS is 10.9
    Thank you

    Hi baoluo,
    Welcome to the HP forums!
    I see you have an Officejet 8500A that no longer holds a wireless connection for very long. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will certainly do my best to assist you with this!
    I will recommend that you follow Solution five in this Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection document to set the printer with a static IP address. There are quite a few steps in this document, so if the static IP doesn't help make sure to browse the rest of the document for other things you can try
    Hope to hear back from you soon!

  • The "write key" configurat​ion file vi use of "trim string" prior to writing the data can modify any string data written.

    I tried to use the config VIs to record some front-panel settings for later restoration, one of which could be a single space character (part of a string parsing system).
    I soon discovered that whenever I tried to save that single-space value to an INI file, only a null string was saved.
    After doing some digging I discovered that buried in the Write Key vi is a worker vi called Config Data Modify that uses Trim String on the string data before it is written to the file and that's what was eating my string character. I don't know whether this is a bug or a feature but there are at least three ways to fix it.
    1) Assuming you want to leave the library VIs alone, you can pre-process any stings sent to "write key" to replace all spaces with "\20" and then post-process all strings read using "read key" to replace all instances of \20 with spaces.
      and if you don't mind modifying the library VIs, either to save/use under a different name or to stick back into the library in a modified state (caution - can cause problems when you move code to another machine with an un-modified library) then...
    2) You can yank the trim-string out of the Config Data Modify vi and hope that it does not have any undesirable side effects with regards to the other routines that use Config Data Modify (so far I have not found any in my limited testing)
    or
    3)  You can modify the string pre-processing vi, Remove Unprintable Chars, to add the space character to the list of characters that get swapped out automatically.
    Note that both option #1 (as suggested above) and option #3 will produce an INI file data entry that looks like    key="\20Hello\20World\20"   while option #2 produces an entry that looks like   key=" Hello World "
    The attached PDF contains screenshots of all this.

    Hi Warren,
    there's a 4th option:
    Simply set the "write raw string" input of the write key function to TRUE
    This option only appears when a string is wired to that function!
    Just re-checked:
    I think it's a limitation of the config file format. It's text based and (leading) spaces in the value are "overseen" as whitespaces. So your next option would be to use quotes around your string with spaces...

  • "Display cannot switch to secondary landscape with this configurat​ion" Error on x201 T

    Hi, I've just bought x201 for 2 weeks. Today I tried to rotate the screen in tablet mode  so I can get the battery with my hand when I read documents but after rotation  and after just 1-2 second it automatically get back to primary landsacpe view and gives me this error. I wonder what is the problem and more importantly what is the solution?
    thanks

    More info: I turned off auto-login, and was able to log in to my test account. Then, I was able to use fast user switching to switch to my main account. I will try again restarting into my main account and see if I can switch to Test. This failed consistently before I posted here. Perhaps the "sense Mac guru" circuit kicked in and cured the problem. I'm about ready to turn in so won't post a follow-up until tomorrow. Right now, I need to use my two accounts to get the job done (a writing job with screen shots of a new unaltered account). Then, I'll go back to trying to see if the problem still exists when I log in to the main account first.

  • How to open a configurat​ion file with a relative path?

    I want to open a configuration file during the initialization of my application (first "state," u can say) and I am using "Open Config file.vi" and tried to pass the config file's path as "data\myconfig.ini" and the "File exists?" vi didn't give any error (simply, the output was "false") but the Open config File gave an error.
    If I pass an absolute path "D:\xyz\xyz\myconfig.ini" it works fine. Isn't it allowed to use "relative path" as I remember using it before for other tasks?
    I actually prefer to have this file in the "data" folder that my application's setup will create in the destination directory while installing the application, because it will be easy when I want to ask the user to open and edit it. Or, I would just put it in "C:\" which exists on all the windows computers, but then it would be too much open.
    Thanks ahead!
    Vaibhav
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Relative paths have sometimes a meaning for command line tools (where a relative path gets appended to the current path, which usually is the executables directory).
    But for Windows GUI applications that makes not much sense. Windows also maintains a per process current path, but that path gets updated by several Windows APIs, one of them being the File Dialog. So whatever your user has last selected in any file dialog inside your application will from then on be the applciations current path. It should be clear that with such a braindamaged current path implementation it has basically no useful meaning, and LabVIEW consequently does not do path expansion, where relative paths are expanded by prepending them with the applications current path.
    Also LabVIEW uses mostly the Windows 32 Bit API, which does provide the current path implementation but does almost not use it in any of its file operations. The use of that feature is mostly reserved for the Windows shell API, which is a higher level API that can as best be described as a collection of various APIs that have been thrown together by whatever some MS developer felt at the moment. You can not by any means call it a designed API at all, and LabVIEW makes almost no use of it, as it needs lower level access, to make its operation similar in its working across all the platforms, LabVIEW can run on.
    So while you can work with relative paths inside your application (and actually should as much as possible to make your application not depend on a particular location) you should make that path absolute whenever you pass it to a function that actually accesses a file somewhere.
