I follow every step in the setup wizard but the print server is not found. I tried with more than one computer to no avail. My router is a Comtrend 536+ Are there any compatibility issues between router and print server. Do I need a linksys router for the ps to work? Any help appreciated!!

Hi… I don’t think you need Linksys router for this print server. Your router needs to be a wireless G router. Secondly there should be a DHCP server enabled on it and the print servers should be hard wired to the router to get a DHCP lease. If its hard wired to the router, connect the printer to it and press the reset button it for couple of sec. This should give you a print out with its IP address. Using this IP address you can login to the setup page of the print server and configure it with a Static IP address and wireless settings to make it work with your router wirelessly. Once configured you can uninstall the printer drivers from your computer and reinstall them with standard TCP/IP port configuration. |

Thanks for helping! You say "Your router needs to be a wireless G router." Does this mean it won't work with my draft N Linksys WRT160N? Further, you seem to say I should not use the 'Installation Wizard' and should go to a manual installation. Is that correct? Here's the info on the print server: Manufacturer: Linksys Description: Network Printer Model: WPS54G-RM Model Number: Not Available IP Address: 192.168.1.101 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 MAC Address: 00:14:BF:6C  C:CE Manufacturer URL: Not Available Manufacturer Phone: Not Available |

I tried upgrading the firmware from 6046 to 6049. I select the file "APPJ08.BIN" and click OK. It asks for confirmation. The ethernet light flashes for a short while then goes steady. I waited 10 mins and tried to connect again to no avail. I power cycled and was able to connect again but the firware version still shows 6046. Any ideas? Thanks, David.

Hi, I have printing successfully working from a Vista computer but am failing to set up my Linux (openSUSE 11.0) computer to print successfully. Has anyone successfully printed from a non Microsft OS? If so how did you set it up? Thanks, David.
