Need Help with 655 and Lexmark wireless printer
« on: June 20, 2010, 05:36:58 PM »

I have had this router for about 1 week now and the only problem I am having is getting it to interact nicely with my Lexmark PrO 805.  I know it's the router because I can plug in my older router and it will print wirelessly great for days. 

The problem is that I have to unplug my printer and plug it back in.  After that wireless printing will work for about 1 hour.  After 1 hour or so I can send a print job to the printer which is still connected and nothing will print.

However, if I plug my old router back in I never have this issue.  Any ideas on some settings I could change?

If not what about trying this shareport feature I read about?

Check your printer's wireless settings.  It seems that the printer might be set to DHCP, which requests an IP from the router's DHCP server.  You router's DHCP server might have a short "IP" assignment time, which then "required" a DHCP client to re-request another IP address.
