  • P1102w no longer working on wireless, lights don't blink

    I just moved and have not been able to get the wireless working on my printer. We have an apple time capsule (airport) router that moved with us, so it should be the same wireless network we connect through. Tried reinstalling, but when I go through says it can't find a network even when I put in the SSID in the advanced settings. The wireless light is not blinking at all.
    Self test says: wireless status: enabled, SSID: correct, network status: not connected.
    I have tried resetting, reinstalling, and re-plugging in everything.
    Any idea of what could be wrong? Is the wireless radio broken?

    Hi @number1jon, 
    I see by your post that since you moved that printer isn't working on the wireless network. I can help you with this, but I will need to know what operating system you are using, for more specific setup steps.
    The network information would be from the old location, the router would most likely assign the printer a new IP address at the new location.
    Restore the printer to default settings.
    Turn the printer off, hold down the wireless button and cancel (x button) while turning the printer back on and don't release the two buttons until the printer stops making noise.
    Run the setup again.
    Here is a generic document for setting up the wireless. Installing the Printer on a Wireless Network.
    What operating system are you using?
    Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
    How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
    Does the configuration page show if the Wireless Direct is enabled and does it show a IP address?
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • Sleep light doesn't' blink...is this normal???

    I very curious/concerned about my UBMBP 17 sleep light. It doesn't blink when sleeping. The light stays solid white when my notebook is sleeping. But funny it does blinks when I manually put it to sleep...
    is this normal?
    Thanks!!!

    Thanks everybody!
    But Clay that's what I thought too that the HD isn't sleeping...but it finally did sleep and blink!
    I tested it by changing to the shortest timer allowing it sleep/diplay in one minute aswell...but in reality it really took about several minutes after for it to blink....
    On my UMBP 15" it doesn't do that.
    nothing is connected and both are connected to power outlet with the lid open on both notebooks. Only program
    running is safari and HD is checked rest when possible.

    Hello kiranreddy,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    It appears that your Notebook is not starting, that you have a blank screen and flashing LED's. I will try to help you with this.
    I would like you to start with this document: Computer Does Not Start and the LEDs Blink or the Computer Beeps. This will help to try to identify if the Notebook is providing an error code. If it is, it will also provide steps to attempt to resolve the issue.
    Please let me know how you make out with this. If you require further assistance with this please provide the Model and Product numbers for your Notebook. (How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?)
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • Wifi light doesn't blink when in use?

    Hi all, 64bit Win7 X220...
    As best as I can tell the little green wifi light just remains solid green -- isn't it supposed to blink when there is wifi network activity? (as my previous X60 did)
    I found the blinking useful -- is there something I need to do to turn that back on?

    I stand corrected!  That post is about how to turn the blinking off, which most people find really annoying.  But you can use the same info to turn it on if you want. 
    We had a lot of complaints about the blinking, which is why the default behavior changed sometime around T400.

  • Photosmart C4585 no wireless light

    Hi all,
    i am trying to use the wireless function on my HP Photosmart C4585, 
    when i press the wireless button and press "enable wireless" i get the message "Wireless Radio is now on"
    however, the wireless light doesn't come on and i cannot configure the settings - I tried the HP Solution Centre and clicked on Settings> Other settings > Network Settings but it tells me "The product has not been configured for networking" "no network settings are available"
    Any ideas? I have had it about 12  months but never needed to use wireless before as i just had it plugged in via USB.
    thanks in advance

    I was re-reading the thread and noticed that you said that the wireless network test report indicated that it found 5 networks. If so, then the radio is working!
    Let's try to manually connect the printer to the network.
    First, restore the network configuration and then enable the radio again. The printer should create an ad-hoc wireless network called hpsetup.
    From a wireless laptop, connect to this network and then print the network configuration page from the C4585. It should indicate the printer's IP address and should start with 169.254.
    Now wait 60 seconds and try to browse to the printer's IP address. This should bring up the printer's internal web page. From there, you can connect to your wireless network by entering the SSID and security key in the advanced page under Wireless (802.11) which is under the Networking tab.
    Note that when you manually connect to your network, the laptop will disconnect from the printer's ad-hoc network as the printer connects to your home network. Reconnect the laptop to your home network and then resintall the SW.

  • I have a Linksys WRV200 wireless router and the wireless signal is not working properly so I cannot connect to the internet wirelessly. the wireless light has a fast green blinking light. how can I fix the router?

    I have a Linksys WRV200 wireless router and the wireless signal is not working properly so I am unable to connect to the internet wirelessly.  The wireless light is blinking green very quickly and I connect and disconnect from the network constantly.  How do I get the router to work properly

    Hello James,
    The flashing WLAN light means activity (data getting transferred). Try disconnecting all your devices and check whether the light is still flashing or disconnect the router from internet and do the check.
    Do you have your SSID as linksys or the default one? If your neighbor has the same SSID, then traffic could result from your neighbor's one. Try changing your SSID and password. Make your security WPA/WPA2.
    Hope this helps,
    Thanks

  • MacBook died. Went to plug it up and power it back on, and it made an odd beeping sound. It failed to power up, and the light stays constant and doesn't blink.

    MacBook died. Went to plug it up and power it back on, and it made an odd beeping sound. It failed to power up, and the light stays constant and doesn't blink. i unplugged it to wait for the light to turn off, which it did after a few minutes, but when I plug it back up to try again, the light comes on and stays on, but it won't power back up. I've also tried holding down the power button for up to 30 seconds and it doesn't do anything. Any tips or hopefully answers to this issue?

    Hi. You might have a memory problem. With one or more of your ram being bad. If this is so you can try removing the ram one at a time and try to restart . You can also switch ram slots to make sure ifs not the ram slot. Before you do this try a pram reset. Command/Option/P/R holding down these keys while starting up for three chimes. Also a SMC reset.http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202768

  • My wireless mouse isnt working.  new batteries, green light comes on, blinks, cursor wont move

    my wireless mouse isnt working.  new batteries, green light comes on, blinks, cursor wont move...?

    For the future, you might want to consider  changing batteries in both the keyboard and mouse before they run down completely and/or have any older USB keyboard and mouse on hand for emergency (those can also come in handly if you need to boot using keyboard commands which sometimes fail to respond with a bluetooth keyboard).

  • WRV200 Wireless light keeps blinking, no clients connected.

    Hi,
    Sorry if this is a silly question, but im wondering why my linksys wrv200 wireless light on the router keeps blinking even though my wireless laptop is not turned on?  I checked the router status and no other clients are connected so im puzzled as to why the wireless activity light is blinking which shows activity as per the manual.
    Is this normal??  
    Thanks

    The DHCP client table only contains the computers which requested an IP address from your router. Any device/computer with a static IP address will never appear in that list. You cannot tell if a wireless client with a static IP address is still connected or not.
    Wireless clients may (more likely) appear in the wireless client list. I don't know if the WRV200 has it or not. Usually you'll find the wireless client list by going to the wireless MAC filter setup tab. Enable the filter if it is not enabled (no need to save the setting), press edit filter list, and it pops up a window where you have another button "wireless client mac list". That button shows you a window of active and inactive wireless clients with their IP address. Any static IP address client should appear there, too. (If the list is not there, search the manual for it...)
    You could make another test: change the SSID temporarily on the router to something else. A longer random string. Setup WPA2 with a random preshared key. Save the settings. Disconnect all computers from the router. Still blinking? Unplug the modem connection from the router. Still blinking? If the router is still blinking with nothing wired to it and a wireless network that nobody knows (yet), well, that should clearly indicate a router problem (or at least a wireless light problem). If that is the case it should not be too hard to bring the router back to the shop and show them what is happening.Message Edited by gv on 12-18-200605:43 PM

  • Dv4-1222nr won't turn on lights blinking and hard disk light doesn't come on

    My dv4-1222nr was working fine last night but this morning is something different.  I turned it on and received a blank screen with caps and scroll lights and dvdr blinking and a funny sound as if the dvdr was trying to come on.  I have taken out the battery, removed and put back the ram, and plugged in the ac cord without the battery too.  sadly nothing has worked does anyone know what causes this problem and is there a way to fix it?  I hope its not the hard drive that has to be replaced  i didn't back up any of my stuff. Now something freaky just happened.  As I'm typing this the laptop turned on by itself with the caps lock and scroll still blinking please help....

    Hello, I'm having similar issues with my Hp pavillion DV7. I've always had to have the cord plugged in for the longest, and just recently would have to rig the cord into specific positions or else the LED light would remain off. My Laptop  would randomly turn off, so I assumed It was the cord. I tried to fix the inside of the charging outlet inside the computer, but now the light won't turn on at all. I removed the battery and It hasn't made a difference, I'm scared to press the hidden button because I don't know if it would wipe my hard drive or not, and I don't have any money yet... Also my DVD drive doesn't always work either. I bought this Laptop in 2008-09 as you may have guessed I cannot afford a new one, I have many issues but I can't have It checked since my mother's car broke down. If I need replacments I would appreciate prices since I'm only a teenager... I have several problems with the laptop and I'm desperately in need of a quick fix. (I'm running behind on a scedule that requires to be complete before 2014) My computer runs super slow and freezes, shuts down, crashes and is used by all 4 of our family members I CANNOT wipe the hard drive, and I need professional Help!

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard Caps Lock light doesn't turn off

    Hello
    Recently the caps lock button light doesn't turn off on my apple wireless keyboard. Anybody know how to turn it off. Every time i press a key, the light dims a little, but when not pressed, its fully on. I tried resetting it, taking the batteries off, unpairing it. But nothing =(
    hmmm

    This doesn't turn off your light, but you should check out CapSee on Apple's downloads page. (www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/systemdiskutilities/capsee.html) It puts a notification pane (or bezel) on the screen letting you know when you turn caps lock on and off. Looks just like the volume and brightness bezels. Very slick, and it's free.

  • The Lamp of My Display Doesn't Blink Anymore.

    I use the PowerMac G5 Quad and the 20-Inch Apple Cinema display. My display lights up while the PowerMac sleep or shut down, but the lamp of the display doesn't blink anymore. Does anyone have any ideas? Please, help me.

    Thank you for your reply.
    I had been using it without connecting the USB and Firewire cables, but it had worked normally for several months. I have connected both of the cables to the Mac, and checked the checkbox of "Puts the system to sleep or wakes it" in the Display options in System Preferences, and now it blinks when it is sleeping.
    But... it is a little strange compared to before... Do you think this is normal?
    http://homepage.mac.com/applmc/display.mov
    However, it doesn't blink in any of the following cases.
    — When I check the check box of "Turn the display on and off" in the Display options in System Preferences, and make it sleep, the lamp of the display doesn't blink, but it lights up.
    — When I check the check box of "Does nothing" in the Display options in System Preferences, and make it sleep, the lamp of the display doesn't blink, but it lights up.
    It's very weird. Maybe this is a hardware problem?

  • Photosmart Plus b209 - won't see networks, won't run WPS, wireless light ON

    Hello.
    So I've had a Photosmart Plus b209 for the past three years. Never had a problem. Suddenly I switch my router to a Linksys e2500 and everything stops working.
    I've printed network tests; my printer has no IP address, even when I revert to factory settings. Though the printout tests indicate the printer can "see" my network, I am not able to get it to detect it via the touch-screen menu. WPS also refuses to work, either prompting an error message or a time-out. The wireless light has been on this whole time.
    I'm on a Mac, running OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion). I'm starting to get very frustrated. What can I do?

    Status of the blue wireless light on the printer, on, off blinking?  Verified you are connected to your SSID with correct password?  What is the IP of the printer?
