"Q: My Linksys WRT600N flashed with v24 DD-WRT does not work
wirelessly with HP7410 all-in-one printer. The printer is able to
make a connection, but I cannot ping the printer nor get other
programs to recognize it. PC wired and laptop wireless work well. I
have tried this with and without wireless security.
Printer IP 192.168.10.120
Router IP 192.168.10.1
DHCP begins at 192.168.10.100 - 192.168.10.249
"There must be a DD-WRT setup that I have not figured out, but I
have not found this info on DD-WRT forum or others. -- Tom
"A: On the face of it, this doesn't sound like a problem related
directly to DD-WRT. After all, this is a quite common setup and
falls right into the wheelhouse of any wireless router regardless
of firmware in use. There must be something else going on."
