Will this work with a network printer that only has an ethernet port? Basically will this bridge a printer to your home wireless
1140223
yes, i have my bridge from my wireless and have my ps3 and tv pluged into it.
1140224
Yes, I have my Samsung multi-function printer connected to my home wireless network using this device myself.
1140225
It should work for that. It basically lets a wired device pretend that wireless is actually a wired network.
1140226
Yes, it should. I am using my mine as a bridge for my Network Attached Storage device. It would be the same principle.
1140227
Yes. I am using it for TV box but the same idea applies. It bridges using a wireless connection so any device near it can use a wire ethernet connection. You set it up, plug it in. Setup is very easy and simple. Anyone can do it. Just follow the instructions and find out what your home network address space is. (i.e. 192.168.x.2, network mask is 255.255.255.0) name your bridge 192.168.x.2. You should reserve the address space of 192.168.x.1-10 for your routers.

I've installed it USB to USB. I don't believe it has wireless capability but will check. I don't know about a wired way. The printer doesn't have a port for a parallel or serial feed from a computer

Depends on whether or not your trying to connect wired or wireless. If wired then your going to have to open control panel and allow the printer to be used within your network.If it is actually a wireless printer it must have that capability of being wireless. All routers will work mostly the same way no matter what brand. Your firewall may prevent certain other exterior components to be used as well and would need to be configured to be allowed to use.

Yes, with some configuration. This device acts as a wireless AP, but has both AP and bridge mode. So, the one Ethernet that it has can be used to connect to the printer. Then have the Trendnet associate with you existing SSID in bridge mode.

Yes as long as the printer have WIFI otherwise you will have to connect the printer through an Ethernet cable.

It's not a Wi-Fi printer, so by itself it won't. You can however connect it to a computer and share the printer queue on that computer. That way other devices on your network could print to it through the shared queue.

No, this is a device intended to share mass storage units, Most printers today either can be connected by Ethernet or WiFi (or both), or if you have to share an older printer that doesn't allow sharing, you can connect an old printer to a printer sharing device.

Yes, it works great. We have it hard wired to our network, so I cannot vouch for its wireless functionality, but once it is wirelessly connected to your network any computer connected to the network can use it. Our computers that wirelessly connect to our network all can use the printer. Plus our ipad also uses this printer.

One added note: I'm using a Hawking HMPS2U 4 port USB Hub and it works outstanding. Just remember to get everything working direct first. Then when you install the USB Hub, it'll recognize all the printers you want wireless via the USB Hub.

I plugged my printer into one of the wired jacks on my router using a network cable. It works perfectly as a shared printer on my wireless network.

Yes a wired network printer can work wireless with this gadget. The manual is not good at all so you should have some basic knowledge of networks and IP configuration.

If the printer is indeed a M601N (the "N" is for Network), then it will have a standard Ethernet connection for network connectivity. You would use a standard CAT-5 or CAT-6 network cable to connect the printer to your data network.

this one was for my security system. I dont think this one will work on the printer because this one connects to USB for power and to the ethernet connector. I dont know if you can make your printer wireless but keep searching for answers, someone has done it and it should be posted. My Dongle came with a disk for setup.

No, you need to have a wireless router for the printer to work via wireless.

Hi, We had some challenges in getting this printer set up. I have a PC and my wife has a MAC. We have FIOS internet coming into our home with a modem in the basement. There is an ethernet connector to our offices and a wireless modem (MAC brand). I had an older AIR port, the type that plugs into the wall and has a USB connector. We connected the HP to that and then connected that to the wireless network. I got help for sure. It can be done.

The USB port on this router is intended for a single device. Share your USB printer on the network from one of the machines on your network. OR get a wireless usb printserverOR get a NAS with an integrated media reader and hook it to an ethernet port on the router

I am assuming you have a wireless device like a laptop. You will need to install the device driver included with the printer and choose network. It will detect the printer on your network. The printer should be connected to an network port on your wireless router in order for it work before you install the driver.
