NIghthawk RAX40 WPS issues and firmware update from the app.
HI peeps . i haven't been able to find anything related to this issue on here so i'm hoping someone can help . first of all, updating the firmware from the app doesn't work, it says it is up ...
Brother printers often have very buggy wifi, you should definitely download their tool and update its firmware.
I'm having the same issue with my Epson ET-2550 multi-function printer.
I can see the printer when I am logged into the RAX40 wifi routers console and I can see the RAX40 on my broadband routers console.
But the Epson software on my computer that is connected to the broadband router can't detect the SSID of the RAX40 and thus can't connect to the printer
Out of curiosity, are you using Windows as your operating system on your computer? If so, check to see if Windows set up your WiFi network as 'Public' or 'Private'.
Just a thought.
Yeah it is windows
it was set to public and I had no luck there
I changed it to private still no luck
I tried turning off the firewall for both public and private and no luck.
When I had the wifi turned on on my braodband router the epson software was able to see my SSID but I ended up having issues with the wifi signal around the house so I got the RAX40
