Problem with wireless print server

**asch** · 04-23-2005, 12:01 PM

I have a linksys wireless router (WRT54G) and recently purchased a linksys wireless print server (WPS54G). It was a piece of cake to intall... after I told my router to let the print server in. :-)

For some reason however, my computers lose sight of the printer on the network. The computers will say that a default printer is not installed. I unplug (power) the print server and plug it back in... wait a few second... and then everything appears to work ok.

So I'm guessing that either the print server is losing sight of the printer or losing sight of the wireless router. It gets rather annoying to have to reboot the wireless print server.

Any ideas why this is happening?

hmm, try disconnecting ALL networks btw your computer and your printer then replug it in. try it again after that
