Orbi wireless printer set up
Hi, I have the Orbi RBR50 with 2 salalites. It is set up in router mode with a BT home hub. I am struggling to connect a Samsung wireless printer C430W. I cannot get the printer to show on the netw...
After hours I finally got my wireless printer working with orbi so I thought I’d document the process here:
The printer is a dell 1160w and I set it up on a Mac.
I couldn’t for the life of me get the printer to pop up in the “devices” section.
What finally got it to work was the following:
Remove ALL security from my WiFi network.
Use WPS to connect the two.
Check ORBI webpage and ensure that printer shows up as a device.
Go directly to the IP address of printer noted in 3.
Logon directly to printer interface d - password was in the manual.
