Hello
I have installed a d-link router dir-825.
I have already connect a printer with shareport and it's working very well.
We have also a laptop wireless connected;
The problem is that after installing shareport on the laptop I get the message in shareport: no device connected;
Have someone suggestion for a solution?
regards

Does the printer have a power feature by chance that allows the printer to go in to a power saving mode? If the printer works initially then you come back say a day later, check the printer to see if it's sleeping. Might wake it up by using a button on the panel to wake it. Then try SharePort.
What model printer do you have?
How are you connected to the router? Wired or Wireless?

Hello
The printer has a power feature but it's working very well with my desktop.
I have a canop MP630 printer.
The difference between my desktop and laptaop is that if I right click on the shareportbutton I see on my desktop at the top the d-link router and the IP adress ( DIR-825 - 192.168.0.1) and I can it switch it on or out. On the laptap I don't have this

Is Short GI and WLAN partition enabled? Try turning them off.
-
In the router I find the WLAN partition disabled and the short GI was enabled; Both are now disabled but shareport is still not find the USB printer.

Turn off Advanced DNS Services if you have this option under Setup/Internet/Manual.
Turn on DNS Relay under Setup/Networking.
Setup DHCP reserved IP addresses for all devices on the router. Setup/Networking
Ensure devices are set to auto obtain an IP address.
Set Firewall settings to Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP under Advanced/Firewall.
Enable uPnP and Multi-cast Streaming under Advanced/Networking.

Do you first disconnect shareport on your desktop computer, then connect the laptop?
-
Hello
I disconnect shareport on my desktop before I try to connect with the laptop
Regards

I have done everything you ask FurryNutz but in shareport on the laptop no connection.
The difference between desktop and laptop is that if I right click on the shareport icon there is no DIR-825-192.0.1 to see on the laptop. On the desktop I can switch on or of.

Sorry
But still the same reaction no device found

Is there any 3rd party security SW running like a firewall. Ensure all firewalls are off.
Does the LT connect to the internet via wireless correctly.
Can you connect a wired connection to the Laptop and turn off the wireless and then try Shareport again.
-
I have already diseabled AVG during the test and now de laptop is connected wired but still the same reaction.
During start up the LP a got the message: shareport is in use?
-
And you got this after you rebooted the LT?
-
Yes
-
I have also another message on startup:
shareport Network USB Utility installation is not complete. reinstall
I think it's the old one
-
Do a full remove of new and old SP software. Then reinstall new. Use the Control Panel/Add/remove programs.
-
I have done it already but I will do it again

Problem seems to be related to the OS on the LT as the other PC, 7 ultimate works. Turned off everything security wise and still SP said that there were no servers available to connect to.
User needs to try using updated printer drivers on the LT and if still wont' work, I recommended trying the following:
1. Disconnect the printer from the SP port on the router and connect it to the other PC and share out the printer on that PC.
2. Get a USB to LAN adapter and connect the printer to it and use IP addressing to print to it.
3. Clean install of 7 Ultimate on the LT.

Now I have connect the printserver silex c-6200U ( special for canon) to the router and I like to reinstall the software but I get always the message " Failed to communicate with the print server; Please check the network settings;
Any suggestions?
regards
-
I don't any any experience with this print server so I would recommend getting a hold of the Mfr support for that modem print server.
Is this error message displaying on the LT? Does the other PC connect to the print server? If the LT doesn't and the PC does, you might be back to square one with the LT and that particular OS. ???
-
It was on both systems the same. Now I have reinstalled the software from the printserver completely oand I find by both systems the IP from the printserver 192.168.102.
But on the 2 systems still no connection with the printer
Regards
-
I would set up a reserved IP address for the print server at 192.168.0.150. I thought that .102 was your LT that we reserved. If you have the print server set up, then your PCs and printer driver should be pointed to 192.168.0.150 after you get the Print server set up and that IP reserved on the router. After you reserve that IP address. Power OFF the printer server then power back on and it should work.
Again, make contact with the Mfr of that print server if you need to for additional help.
-
I have read on the Mfr of silex how to reset de printerserver and also change the settings inside the print-server.
After seret the server was on another IP adres 192.168.0101.
I changed the stting in the software of the printer with the same IP adress and It works on my desktop.
The seconfd was the LT. Ik have done the same and after than there was only one problem with AVG firewall. I put the IP adress in the exceptions and its works also very fine.
Furrynutz I must thank you for the help but I have only one question. How can I save the settings of the router so that al changes that you have made can put in a backup?
regards Pierre
-
Glad you got the print server going.
Log into the server and use Tools/System and Save configuration to file. Give it a file name convention like: 20120201DIR825RevBv20?<FWverion so that you can see the date, model, RevInfo and Firmware verion in the file name.
Enjoy.

Many thanks for all your help. I hope I can do once the same for you
