I'm having problems connecting to a printer. It has worked for a long time, it's still my default printer, but when I try to access it, it gives me a spooling error.
Now here's why I think it's a network problem.I can't access the main computer's network location (the one hooked up directly to the printer). All the other computers come up on the networkjust fine. And the one in question is only able to access very few computers in the network browser. let me simplify:
computer A/ brother printershared computer B/no longer sees A on network A/ sees only a small portion of other computers on network B/ sees all computers but A
Again, I don't think it's a spooler problem. It probably gives that error because it's a default printer with a lost connection.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI had a network connection to the main family computer that just completely disappeared after I got back on it. It had been on all day because it was defragmenting, but a few minutes after I got back on it (I had just sat down in the chair and sent a couple messages on a chat I was in and dismissed an "Oh, Windows Media player found another WMP on main computer! Wooo!" notification) and then it was gone.
I assumed the internet had crashed so I gave it a couple hours, no internet. I stayed up longer waiting, writing, playing some games, but nothing. I didn't check the Network computers thing until now.
Usually even when the internet crashes the main computer still shows up in the computer list but it was just mine then. It seems like it totally dropped the connection and it can't find it again when I try to create a new one. It's not like I watch p~rn or download anything I'm not supposed to download so...
And the network icon doesn't have a big red no connection at all x - It's just the two computers, no world icon, no x. I've tried booting in safe mode with networking, nothing, 'netsh winsock reset catalog' + 'netsh int ip reset.log, nothing, create new connection, nothing, and repair memory problems, nothing. : Microsoft Security Essentials found no viruses after a full scan, and it had been updated hours before the internet had a tantrum. I recently uninstalled Malwarebytes because according to a friend its update crashed her computer so I have no other virus scanner to use.
Oh, I'm runnning a Windows Vista Home Premium. Mine is genuine, it came with the computer, but my father had the bright idea to use -my- Vista disc to install it on the main PC, so it's all 'rawr not genuine' though as far as I know, my father's W7 laptop is still running just dandy.
We use a D'Link router, and it's worked fine until now. I don't actually know how my computer is connected, I'm pretty sure it's hardwired to the modem or router, but my father's is wireless. I've been searching like mad for the router's wireless USB thing, but it seems to have walked out the door.
My Network is gone from my list of available networks on my MacBook. I use s NETGEAR router, my network name is simply "NETGEAR" i have never named it anything else since installing this over 4 years ago. I have unplugged the power cord, waiting several minutes before plugging it back in. Also tried unplugging both the cable and the power cord. The router has no small "pin hole" that i can see in order for me to try to re-set it this way. It has literally disappeared from my Mac. Do i need to re-install using my NETGEAR cd?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm on a home computer and we use a router to deliver internet connection to the multiple computers in our house.However, lately I have been noticing that occasionally one of the computer's, on the network, internet connection drops but yet all the other computers are still working fine with their internet connection. And the internet doesn't completely turn off, like there is no "X" on the two computer screens down below...it just loses its little globe icon...In order to get back the internet, you would have to basically disconnect from the internet connection network and then go back into it and it's back again.
I was wondering, because I'm starting to get suspicious, is it possible that somebody on the network in my house the deliberately found a way to turn of the internet access for one of the computers? I was alerted by checking different websites that it is possible that somebody on your own home network can "hack" into another computer, view its internet history, and even disable internet. How do I know this is happening for sure and take steps to stop it. I want to catch who is doing this because nobody is telling the truth .
II tried to make a wep password. and when i made one, i went on my laptop to try to find my network but my network name was completely gone from the list of available wifi networks i can connect to.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have a new DCS-5220 that we're playing with, seeing what we can do with it, and have a number of questions as well as one possible bug to report. I was somewhat surprised when tier 3 support said this was the best place to cover them all - including the bug.We are using firmware version 1.02, which is what the camera came with.
In the webgui, under Configuration > Tools > System > "Turn off the LED indicator" this is completely ignored by the camera. The red power LED is always on, and the green status LED flashes as long as it has a network connection. This is clearly a bug.What is the root password?Is there a URL we can pole for a static image? (ie.url... which would trigger a snapshot every time the URL is requested)Are there any shell commands for motor control? If so, what are they?Is there a shell command to retrieve logged in users? If so, what is it?Is there a shell command for controlling the LED activity? It would be really nice if the status LED lit green when there was someone logged on to the webgui. Perhaps this is the intended activity, and it not doing so should be filed away as part of the above bug..
I recently got my Cisco wireless system working a few days ago and am back with a guest network. Our wireless system includes one 2504 controller and 2 2602i access points. So, I want a wireless guest network completely isolated from the LAN.
Here is what I have done.
I have created a new internal network and assigned 192.168.2.1 to an unused port on the firewall and 2.2 to a new controller interface with vlan 10. I can ping both 2.1 and 2.2 from the firewall and the controller. Basic network connectivity is working. The DHCP server is setup on this same firewall and configured only for this port. This address is referenced in the controllers interface.
A new w lan was setup and enabled. The proper interface group was selected on the w lan. I have left the default layer2 security.
As far as AAA servers tab in this wlan, this is where I am a little confused. I wish to just have a single log in for this guest network. I wasn't sure what to do so I went over to the Security tab and created a "local net users" account. I do not know how to reference the use of this under wlan, security, aaa servers. Should I check the box that says "local eap authentication"?? If so, I don't have a profile name in the drop down. What I'm looking for is the username/password to be stored locally on the controller itself since there will be only 1 account.
Under wlan, advanced tab, I do not have "Allow AAA override" checked. Should I?
Lastly, when I try to connect the client, it is not pulling a dhcp address. I wasn't sure if authentication was required before dhcp or the other way around so I'm not sure what to trouble shoot first, authentication or dhcp.
I am using the RV220W with the latest firmware, I disabled all the four APs and also disabled the Radio, but the "Wireless" green light on the front panel still ON, why? How can I completely turn off the wireless?
Quoted from manual: WIRELESS—The Wireless light is green when the wireless module is enabled. The light is off when the wireless module is disabled.
Moreover I tried to disable the "Radio" while enabled one AP, I found that I can still connect to that AP, so what is the Radio's Enable/Disable used for?
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.
Unable to find the printer I am sharing on wifi on my home network !!

They are all network printers, not local printers.Then why it is not showing the printers alone, why they show the pcs in the network and the same printer is shown in different pcs as they are installed in all of them.

View 1 Replies View Relatedmy home network is of 2 wired computers and one wireless computer (this one) whats strange is that even though i have internet access, I am unable to see any of the shared folders on the wired computers even though the wired computers can see each others shared folders and the shared folders on the wireless one.what im trying to do is connect to a printer, the wireless one preferably,but i can settle for the one thats directly connected to one of the wired computers if i could. i think this strange network blindness on my side might be part of the problem. this wireless one is a xp, the one with the direct printer is a vista, not sure on the last one, im thinking xp, but if xp doesnt have a 64 bit version, then i would guess 7.

I now want the printer share to be hosted from the server. I set up the printer correctly (to my knowledge). i was able to set it up and print a test page. But when i go into properties and attempt to share the printer, i click on Share this Printer and enter in a name, i designate it to list the printer in the directory. Then i click apply and ok... and nothing happens. the printer is not shared. When i go back into properties, it shows that i am not sharing the printer.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSmall office setup with a wireless modem/router. We have two computers that are identical HP Pavilion a6807c PCs running Vista Home Premium. Other computers in the office are a bit older and run either XP or Vista.Just purchased a new HP Officejet 7000 printer and connected it via a USB to one of the HP Pavilion Vista computers (which I will refer to as HP1). The printer works fine on HP1 using the direct USB connection.Set printer sharing, file sharing, and even public sharing on both HP computers (HP1 and the other one I will refer to as HP2). Workgroup name is the same. Can access HP1 and see the HP printer on HP1 from other computers in the office. However, when I try to connect to the printer from HP2 to HP1, it locks up HP1 and HP1 requires a hard reset. I tried installing the software/drivers on HP2, but HP2 still tries to install the drivers from HP1.I am not sure its a problem with HP1 as much as it is a Vista issue. The reason I say this is because I have been able to successfully use an XP computer (XP3) to connect and print to the Officejet on HP1.
