1. Putting a WiFi router in a basement is well, not advised.
2. Your other issues may be the firewall in the router or other pieces. Without launching into why this is an issue, I have to turn off the firewall in the router time and time again. Easiest 150 buck service call I make.
I have a situation with my home “network.” Let me describe the layout first.
In our basement is the “hub,” which consists of a cable modem, wireless router (ASUS AC52U) and a switch. When we finished the basement we put in 4 wired access points that connect to the switch in the hub. I’ll just call these access points A, B, C and D. If it matters, three of these access points are wall plates with 4 LAN connections that have a switch behind them, and a single wire leading to the hub. The fourth access point (we’ll say that is Access Point D) is a wall plate with 1 LAN connection. There is a switch plugged into that.
There are two printers connected at the hub, both HPs. 6310 and 8610.
At Access Point A there is a desktop (call it desktop 1) and a docking station hard-wired to the network. At Access Point D there is a desktop (call it desktop 2) hard-wired to the network. All 3 of these computers are running Windows 7 and all can access both printers as well as the internet.
For the record, devices at Access Points B and C can access the internet (Xbox, Smart TV, gaming PC, Media player) so the Access Points are connected and I think the network is working.
The issues come with the printers. Due to some work we’re doing, desktop 1 and the docking station are temporarily moved. The docking station is now sharing Access Point D with desktop 2 and desktop 1 is now at Access Point B. Both are still hard-wired but neither can print to either printer. They can “see” the printers but when I try to print it goes through the motions and finally errors out. When I take each one back to Access Point A, they can print successfully.
My first question is how to make both printers available to the entire network? Why would it matter which actual jack I am using? Even more puzzling is that the docking station is unsuccessful at an Access Point that desktop 2 is using successfully.
Second question, which may be cured when the first one is, is that desktop 1, when it is at Access Point D, sees the 6310 as “offline.” I want to say that this has happened before. The printer is online, how can I get the computer to see that it is?
Last question – we have 2 laptops that we connect wirelessly. One is Windows 7, the other is Windows 8. When we try to install printer drivers on either one, it fails. Each can detect the network printers and when Windows attempts to install the drivers it fails. No explanation. I hesitate to go to HPs site to download the drivers as (IIRC) you end up with a bunch of bloat as well, like software. Last time I did that the software gave me a ton of fits in regards to scanning (this was for the 6310).
Thanks in advance for any guidance.
