Windows not finding the printer
I have successfully connected my Brother printer to the internet through my T-Mobile box, but when I try to connect to it on any of my computers (two laptops and a desktop), none of them can find a printer. I dumbed the network down to 2.4 GHz, WPA/WPA/2, TKIP & AES and repeatedly rebooted everything without success. All are showing up as connected devices on the T-Mobile Internet app, but Windows is not finding the printer. I have tried connecting directly using the printer’s IP address, but that doesn’t work either. I talked with T-Mobile Home Internet Support, but after running through things the only suggestions were (1) to delete the printer’s drivers, etc., from the computer and go back through the printer installation (which I did, with no change) or to add a Mesh and try connecting through that. Any suggestion on getting Windows to see the printer that is on the network? I am about ready to jump back to ATT. Lousy customer service and slower speeds, but at least everything connected!262Views0likes2CommentsRe: SimpliSafe not finding the internet
Yes, I have tried everything and continue to get the same result: “The network xxxxxxx isn’t connected to the internet.” I also cannot get any of my computers to find my printer on the network. It is connected -- I am able to print by saving things to my Dropbox and then downloading the document from there to the printer -- but when I try to connect in Windows, the Printer app says there is no printer connected to the network.66Views0likes0CommentsSimpliSafe not finding the internet
I am trying to get my SimpliSafe system connected to the internet through one of my T-Mobile home internet networks. I have the black box and one of the networks set to 2.4 GHz and WPA/WPA2. When I try to connect, the SimpliSafe system sees both networks. I select the one set to 2.4 GHz, but when I try to connect, the SimpliSafe app says that the network is not connected to the internet -- even though it is. Anyone have a solution to suggest for fixing this?230Views0likes2Comments
