WRT1020N cant connect wireless

Hi
Brought this new router yesterday after my old linksys was playing up. I set it up on my pc using a wired connection. PS3 upstairs was able to connect to router wirelessly but my laptop cannot.
It recognises that the router is in range with full signal strength but everytime I click connect it just wont connect. It doesnt give any error message, just after 40 seconds it times out and stops trying to connect.
I took all security settings off the router but still nothing, Any help please?
Thanks

What is the operating system on your laptop?
Remove all the preferred wireless networks from the laptop.
Open the setup page of the router on the wired computer.
Go to the wireless tab and set the configuration view to manual.
Create a new wireless network. Change the SSID and set the wireless channel to 11.
Go to the wireless security sub tab and change the security settings.
Go to Wireless MAC filter sub tab and make sure that it is disabled.
Go to advanced wireless settings. Change the Beacon Interval to 75, RTS threshold to 2307, Fragmentation threshold to 2306. Try to connect to the new wireless network on your laptop.

Hi robiroe,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. I see that your wireless adator on your computer is not visible in the device manager, and I would be happy to assist you!
To begin, I would suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the wireless adaptor's driver software. To do this, please follow this document on Uninstalling Software (Windows 7). The next step will be to re-install the driver by downloading the Original NVIDIA Networking Controller Driver. If the issue persists, I recommend following this document on Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7). This should help determine if there is a hardware issue.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

Cant connect wireless!

New to the forum, and I probably know you guys have seen, read, or already answered this, but whenever I try to connect wireless, it doesnt do anything. And im going to describe everthing that i see, I got an acer computer and whenever i bring up my acer enet management, and go to see what networks i can see, of course i see my and it reads; the settings saved on this computer for the network do not match the requirements of the network. thats it on that. and on the quick list it shows my router name with a icon of a padlock and a G. Im new at this, and its probably gonna be something simple but ill appreciate if somebody helps out, thanks!!!

If you see your Network name it will either say secured, unsecured, or connected next to the name. you should also see your signal strenght between good and excellent ( 1 bar to 5 bar depending on system).
I reread your original message. Padlock means that it is secured and you are on the G router.
You will have to log on to your router and manually copy the info in each box under wireless connection and wireless security.
You will then go to your wireless management and right click on your network name then click on properties. You will input the info copied from your router into each boxes

Cant connect wireless access to harddisc

Hey. I have a problem when i try to connect my Samsung story station 3.0 external hard drive. I wAnt to connect it to my airport extreme so it Can be accessed wireless. I have done all setup. I have set it to share by wan. I can find it when I click into my base station. But I can't get into it. And no matter what I do I can't find the external drive in my finder. What have I done wrong?
It is set to share by wan. I have no wpa2 code. how can I get it work. I am using a iMac.

Hi, I'm having the same issue with my seagate external hd but I have a couple of more questions... if you can help me I'd really appreciate..
I just bought a new 2011 mac air and a new airport extreme and I connected my old seagate external hd. It is formatted in NTFS and I could, eventually, re-format the hd in Mac OS Extended but I also work with a pc and so my wife... I'm assuming that if I format the hd in Mac OS Extended I won't be able to use it with the pc. Am I correct? Unfortunately I need an hd connected to my airport that works with BOTH the computers...
Any solution??
A frind me suggested me to try a software called NTFS 3G that should enable my mac air to see the hd connected to the airport...
Has anyone ever tried this solution?
Otherwise, does exist a router that allows me to connect an external hd without having this compatibility issues, so I can read, modify and back up my files at home from both pc and mac??
Thanks

Cant connect wireless to Westell wireless modem/router

Im pretty sure its the fact that the imac uses N and the router doesnt broadcast to N, but even still i know that wireless N is backwards compatible and can connect through B and G. So Im trying to figure out how I could go about changing the airports configuration so that it would run as a G or B instead of an N or if thats not possible. If its not possible I need to know what my options are. Thanks guys.

It would help to know what operating system and router. Nevertheless, let's try this:
If Windows, go to Control Panel > Printers and delete all instances of thsi printer.
Next, go to Start > All Programs > HP > [your printer model] > Add a Device. Follow the instructions. Make sure a USB cable is NOT connected when you start this process. The software will ask you to connect a USB cable during the re-installation.

Cant print wirelessly after getting new router

Hi,
I cant connect wirelessly. After I uninstalled then reinstalled using the hp set up assistant I downloaded from this site, I get asked ito check a box f I want to connect wirelessly.
I check the box. It asks me to connect via USB. I am connected via USB. I disconnect then reconnect. It asks me to enter my wireless network name. I do that but it says the device isnt connected and that I should connect via USB. I disconnect the USB and connect it to another USB port and it still doesnt work.
I shut down the computer, disconnect the printer, and reset the router. I turn on the computer then reconnect the printer and launch again the set up assistant. It still cant discover the WiFi. I go to my system preferences and open up Print & Fax. I see the printer there. I delete it. When I add again finally I see a place to enter an ip address. I add that and now I see a generic printer with the ip address. I still cant connect.
I go back and re add the HP 6000 printer option that it says to add. I uninstall the hp software, I shut down my computer, disconnect the printer. I turn off the router, disconnect it, reset it. I wait for the router to turn back on, then turn on the computer, turn on the printer, reinstall the software. It still says the device isnt connected.
I check to see if its listed in Print & Fax and it is. The set up assistant wont let me continue. I
just discovered that I can manually connect to my network device by typing in my ip address under the gear icon in the set up assistant. I input my routers ip address and every ip address listed in my network but it still cant connect. Im out of ideas!!!
Thanks

HP 3050 - Cant Connect To Anything Via Wireless

I am very baffled as to what is going on this is how my computers are connected....
My main PC is connected to my router via an ethernet cable
My 2 laptops are connected via wireless
They arn't in a network so to speak as in they see and share files they just use the router to connect to the internet now my PC I got is working fine so it sends info to the router via Ethernet and bang printer prints via wireless, Now for my laptop I installed the CD software V 22.5.0 according to the disc. I went through the set-up and wanted to connect wireless so I followed the screen prompts used the USB cable to install device drivers and though the next screen see's my printer and network name it will not connect at all says it cant find it to actually connect to it.
I turned off the windows firewall on the laptop thinking that could be it but no I even went into the screen where I can manually type the IP address of the printer and it still wont find and connect to it, for router is a Netgear DGN2000 with the latest firmware I have set it up so that all the hardware I know thats connected has a IP address reserved so everything gets the same address all the time.
I even tried to get into the printer via IP address in IE9 but it wont even connect to it even searching in Add Printer it wont see my model even though the software is installed unless I keep it connected via USB to keep drivers on
Can anyone help because I have seriously tried for days
This question was solved.

I did the ping to the printer from the laptop and it cam back 4 packets sent 4 recieved
Hi,
That means nothing wrong with "seeing" each other (asuming the printer can also ping the laptop). I'm chatting with my network people now (using communicator). Hope he can have some thoughts. I will update this.
Updated: He was saying why you selected to use USB to install on laptops ( I followed the screen prompts used the USB cable to install device drivers ) ? You need that printer driver and its wireless utility. Should be on the CD.
