Nighthawk C7000 USB to Canon MP210 doesnt work

Hello,

 

I am trying to setup my Canon MP210 as a wireless printer. I connect the USB-A to USB-B into the Router USB port, sometimes it shows as a connected device. But I cannot see it in the NetGear USB Control Center. I've used the printer directly from my computer,

 

I have Access Control turned off, recently I've factory reset the router without luck. Im on a windows 10 laptop and also tried through the genie app in my android phone no luck.

 

Any advise?

 

Regards,

Victor Gonzalez

  • Suddenly it worked. I didnt do anything new. Maybe a computer reset.

     

    Thank you for your help!

    • Hello Plemans,

       

      Thank you for your reply and help. I've already done those steps. Even disabled the firewall on the router and allowed the NETGEAR USB Control Center through my laptop's firewall and no result.

       

      Now I dont see the printer on the router.

       

      This is so weird.

        have you tried running the usb control center as an administrator? 

        If you log into the router through the browser, does it show the printer connected?
