Looking for a little help here, actually, ALOT OF HELP! I have two(2) computers, one(1) laptop; Dell XPS M1710, (less than 10 months old) & One(1) desktop; Dell XPS 630i, (Brand new). Both are running MS Vista. They are both connected to a broadband internet connection from Cox Communications via a modem/router I have had for three(3) years now; Motorola SBG1000. I have NEVER had any issues with this modem and the six(6) other computers which have utilized this connection point in that same three year time frame. The problem I am having is getting the two new computers to see & connect to my printer; HP Business Inkjet 2230, connected directly to the modem/router via a biodirectional cable. As stated previously, I have not had any problems with the "other" computers which all were running several different forms of software. I could connect to the printer with each and every one of them. My question is, Why is it sooo hard to get this simple task to work AND what do I have to do to make it work? Buying a new modem, router, & printer, is out of the question. Help! Thank You for your time, Chris Lane |
