Re: Any Solution to the Printer connection problems with T-Mobile Gateways?
tomwil - thanks for the reply. I didn't see anything in those threads about how to change the Gateway's transmission mode, but I'll check out the Nater Tater Youtube videos referenced. iTinkeralot - the specific Model of the printer is an HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, Model Number on the back is: SNPRC-1101-01 I don't know how old the printer is, it isn't mine, but 8 years sounds about right. I think I used to have one of these for several years, but I'm now using an HP Color Laserjet at my residence. I'm trying to upgrade a widow's Wifi internet from a VERY slow Century-Link DSL. Thought I'd try T-Mobile before I brought in Xfinity Cable. Everything was looking good until I tried to switch the printer over. I've spent a couple hours with T-M tech support, and have tried several times switching back and forth between combined gateway and separate 2.4g & 5G gateways. No luck on the separate 2.4G with a different name either. If I can't get the Arcadyan KVD21 transmission mode to talk down to the printer, I may have to pull the plug and wait for Xfinity to run a cable to the house.9Visto0likes0ComentariosAny Solution to the Printer connection problems with T-Mobile Gateways?
Installed my Arcadyan KYD21 Router last Friday, and everything works fine except that I cannot get my HP 8600 printer connected. Been through multiple conversations with support, and tried everything including using the admin settings to separate the 2.4G and 5G gateways, plus reinstalling and resetting the printer. Still cannot connect. Looks like either the gateway is filtering, or the printer cannot use "b/g" with no way to change to "n" on the gateway, nor is there anyway to manually add the printer IP address. Router and printer are too far apart to use an ethernet or usb-c connection. T-Mobile tech support says the gateway is working as it should and it's not a problem at their end. Unless there is a solution within the next week (15 day free trial) Its -back in the box and cancel the service. I have to be able to connect a printer. Anyone have any other ideas?Solved9.5KViews3likes25Comentarios
