I just replaced a printer on my network and assigned it the same IP address as the old printer. When our workstations were XP, all that I would have to do is apply the IP address to the new printer and, as long as the drivers were compatible, the printer would work.Now that we have Win7 on the workstations, it grays out the printer and wont let me re-enable it.
I used to be able to set an uplink port with the interface command "port network" so that it would not learn all the mac addresses that are being flooded down to the switch. It does not seem to be there on the 2950's or 35XX switches.
Where did it go and what is replacing it? Interface is a Trunk port as well.
I have 2 desktops (running windows 7), a Canon MF8300 printer, and an outgoing ethernet line, all on a Netgear Advanced Cable Modem Gateway CGD24-CPR. I'm only concerned with having the 2 desktops set up with the Canon printer.Both computers have been connected to the printer before and I have the startup disk. But once the new offices were set up and both of the desktops were moved, I can no longer access or find the printer.
I can IPconfig the Desktops for their IPV4 addresses and both desktops recognize eachother on a Homegroup, but I can't find the printer. I printed off the print configuration page from the printer which gave me an IP address (printer is set for auto-obtain), but using an IP search won't bring up the printer.All of the devices are plugged into ethernet ports set up for the three different office they are in and the actual location of the Netgear cable modem/router is over 100 feet away. My primary concern is getting the printer for the desktops, but I also need to add a wireless router into one of those office in the future.
I need to replace a 4402 with a 2504 controller and put a 2504 controller in the DMZ for guest access. The 4402 would be replaced at a remote site (not hreap) and support a couple of wlans, one of those would not be local and would be anchored back to the 2504 in the DMZ for the guest services. All of my 5508's also would be hitting the 2504-DMZ to anchor the guest service as well. Is this still feesable in the 2504 series?
Have a 5510 in Routed mode, simple Static NAT to interface two networks (inside_1 is my private space, and outside_1 the larger intranet that hosts heavy traffic). outside_2 faces internet via pppoe just for VPN purposes.
It was operating fine for one year then one port broke (outside_2, internet), leaving no vpn. We followed RMA service replacement and the new unit came with upgraded SW (8.0.4) than the one the original config was created on (8.0.2).
To ease the replacement, I did downgrade the sw boot image. Then I did restore the config by tftp to the startup-config and then a reload. Everything seems to load fine.
Problem is that testing reveals some sort of issue: I can ping some of the intranet hosts but can't reach gateway, thus larger segment of hosts become unreachable. It seems as if the NAT mechanism can't find the next gateway where to hop. For debug practice, I've enabled all the icmp stuff so ping wasn't being blocked by the device.
Being given the fact that this config was up and running prior to the replacement, I've no reason to suspect any mysconfigured items (ie routes, NAT, access-list), but obviously I'm obfuscated and can't see what else I'm missing.
How is that possible that the PING only reaches certain hosts? Pinging to 10.15.5.90 works (Route is 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 to 10.15.5.126 (gw)), but pinging to the gateway itself doesn't (10.15.5.126) and even worse, hosts like 10.15.167.210 do not respond either.
Had a WNDR 3700, as I do, and replaced it with a 4500 and whether it was worth the upgrade.I can always use the 3700 as a wireless repeater in the living room, where I kind a need one anyway.
A few weeks ago, I replaced a PIX 515E with a pair of ASA 5520's. We have a few basic web applications behind the ASA's. Nothing complex; just port 80/443 traffic. During the swap, we basically just copied the config from the PIX to the ASA. So the config is virtually identical.
Since the swap, we have one small set of users who gets timed out when trying to get to the application. This small set of users are scattered across the state of Alaska, and they are all accessing the Internet via a satellite connection. All other users across North America can access the application just fine.
Since the satellite connections are relatively slow, but they worked fine when going through the PIX, I suspect the issue is a difference in the default TTL (or similar parameter) between the PIX and the ASA.
I have a Dell Dim2400 computer with Pentium 4, Windows XP Service Pack 3, which I purchased surplus from work, where documents were saved on both the computer and a networked server. Once home, "My Documents" could be opened until the wireless router was changed from a D-Link WBR-1310 to a Belkin Play N600. Thereafter, "My Documents" would not open and instead a window labeled "My Documents" opens with the message: "The network folder,\...........My Documents, that contains My Documents is not available. Try again later, or contact your system administrator for further assistance." A rare coincidence or is there some causal relationship?
I can not get online, after a "Verizon" outage with my router connected, the Reset Button will not move. Can it be replaced? Or should I scrap the unit?
We have an ASA5520 with VPN working fine.We replaced the router, which upgraded the OS from v12.2 to v15.0. We duplicated all the addressing and routing statements from the old router. Now the VPN still connects but the outside host can't ping the inside host anymore. The outside host can't ping any further than the inside interface of the router (10.4.1.1). The Router can ping the outside host, so I know the tunnel is up.I suspect there is a difference in the OS versions that is tripping us up. Perhaps in the way that we have reused the 10.x.x.x address range?
I have just recently replaced a WS-CE500-24LC switch with a SG200-50P. I have plugged in a Cisco 1760 router with a fast ethernet into the switch. On the console of the router I now see these messages: [code]
As far as I am aware both ends of the link are set to autonegotiate the speed and duplex.
I was bought a Vostro 3300 couple months ago and with this, laptop dell dw1501 a/g/b/n wireless network card was provided.
I trust to Dell's specifications and replaced my DSL modem with a new high-end Wireless-N 300 Mbps DSL modem without thinking any compability problem. When I went to home and setup my new modem, my Vostro 3300 connected with only 72Mpbs. I tried to find a solution and find this community topics mentioned below. url...
As you wil see, the dw1501 wireless network card is not support this connection speeds even though the card is advertised as a wireless N card. Some users managed to replace their card with the better ones.
I have 4 computers (3 laptops, 1 desktop) in a shared office. We get internet access using their wireless network. All works fine. However, I need to share a printer amongst all of the computers. The printer is LAN enabled and I would normally just put all the PCs on a hub, together with the printer and share it that way. BUT my question is can we access the internet using the wireless network and the printer using a separate wired network at the same time?
My WLSE 1030 hard drive failed and I have replaced it with a new drive but when I boot from the 2.15 recovery CD the disc boots and runs, within the console connection I get the error "ERROR: version information not found in flash" the disc is the ejected and the system reboots.How can I reload the system software.
I'm running into an issue with allowing all the PCs to use the one printer connected to devpc. I have a westell 7500 from CenturyLink and a Belkin Wireless G router. This is the layout:
I'm a newbie in setting up a network printer, i'm planning on putting its cable directly to the switch which will provide the ip address dynamically, how can i set the printer that all the pc's in the same network can use it,?
I have a problem. We swithced from Shaw to telus and now my computer doesnt see our ptinter. Im tryimg to add but its just not there. I checked the IP address in printer and also of my network (its a network printer ) difference is IP Printer - 192.168.0.100 and my network IP is 192.168.0.101.. Nether of them I could change. well my point is ..
My setup: Windows 7 desktop; Vista laptop. Only one user account on each, with no password.I can share files between the two computers, but only by putting the shared files in the Public folders, otherwise access is denied based on username and password.It is inconvenient, but I can live with sharing files through the Public access.However, a printer connected via USB to the desktop cannot be seen from the laptop. This desktop is new. It replaced an XP desktop on which file and printer sharing worked easily with the same network.
We have a Verizon T1 line providing internet for our backoffice network. On this network, we have 4 network printers that are shared between the facility. We recently opted to go with new web based software that neccesitates a high speed internet connection, and 12 wireless devices across the building. We signed a contract with Comcast Business Class internet, so that in the event of an external failure with one ISP, we would have the other offer redundancy with the new wireless router.It has now become clear that our nurses that are on the Comcast wireless network, now need to print from their wireless devices regularly. At the time this is obviously not possible, because the network printers are only on our backoffice network. Buying a wireless inkjet printer is out of the question. How can I make this happen? All of the printers have a local static IP on our backoffice network (Verizon). I have heard of software that will essentially send the print job to another computer, which would relay the print job to the designated printer.
when I try to connect my wireless printer, it is asking for the IP address. I type in the same addres that is on my computer, but I get message says computer does not recongize network printer. So I trid two other addresses and those did not work. I am conufsed. How do I knw what address to type in?
I would like 3 PC's to share a printer. I have purchased a Samsung 320N for this and also a usb print server. I also have a Belkin router from which the 3 PC's are connected via ethernet for broadband.Can I install the print server software on one machine or does it have to be installed on all the PC's?Am i correct in thinking that the printer will be connected to the print server via an ethernet cable and the print server will be connected to a PC via usb?
We purchased a new printer which is running on a network where one computer is running Windows 7 and the other Windows XP. The printer cable is connected to the Windows 7 computer. The print function works fine on the Windows 7 but doesn't work on Windows XP. Asking me for a "printer name" and I don't know what to put in that option. When I go to printers and faxes I click on each of the options under shared printers and it still asks for "printer name"?
I have a Laptop running Win7 via a router and a desktop running XP with a canon printer connected to it. The desktop is hardwired into the router and the laptop is wireless. Im using Panda Internet Security 2012, Windows Firewall and Defender.If I want to print something from my Laptop, Im able to by having the Desktop PC and printer turned on and have the Windows Firewall enabled and the Panda Firewall disabled on both machines. If I have the Panda Firewall enabled on both PCs and the Windows Firewall disabled, then the printer will not print from the laptop.I have read that the Windows firewall will automatically adjust settings for the 2 PCs, but I would prefer to use the Panda Firewall.
my printer is a lexmark x8350. It does not have an ethrtnet port on it. My home computer has XP on it and I have added a laptop with Windows 7. I need to know how to make my printer work with my laptop.
I've got a wireless N home network set up. My wifes PC is connected directly to the cable modem, and our Epson usb printer is connected to her pc. My Toshiba laptop is using a wireless connection. I can see her pc on the network, but cannot see or connect to the printer over the network. Her PC is running Windows 7, mine is running Windows 8 Pro. I was able to print on this printer with my previous pc, which ran Windows 7
I currently have two networks, Network A and Network B.Network A has a default gateway of 10.1.10.1 with two computers on it. I also have a router connected to Network A and this router creates Network B.Network B's router has an IP address of 10.1.10.18 with a default gateway of 192.168.1.1. Also on network B i have two computers and two printers. One printer is connected directly to the 192.168.1.1 router and the other printer is connected to one of the computers via usb.
I am attempting to replace an existing printer on the network and keep running into trouble. I am sure at this point it is my frustration with it that is not allowing me to see what I am doing wrong. I attempt to just swap it out with exsiting printer and it grabs an IP address and then when I try to enter that IP address into my broswer to access the printer to give it the permanent one from printer I am replacing I cannot get to the printer.
I have; iMac connected to Netgear DG834G router with ethernet cable and epson RX620 printer connected with USB cable/ Laptop running windows XP Media edition which connects ok to network and printer works ok too.Now have new HP desktop running Windows 7 64-bit. I have tried installing vista driver for printer, as per epson site,but I cannot get the printer to work wirelessly over the network.
I'm having a real issue getting a network Brother MFC-J615W multifunction printer to forward through RDP (using net use) to a windows XP VM from a Vista desktop.So far, i've done all i know to do to get the printer forwarded:I've shared the original printer in vista as "brother1"created new printer in vista using LPT2, called it "remote" opened a cmd prompt, typed in "net use lpt2: \vistapcnamerother1 /persistent:yes" received a "successful" reply connected to the XP VM thru RDP and see all the other printers available on the Vista desktop.
