Login to your router, "http://routerlogin.net"
Click "Advance" Tab,found on top of display
Click "Advance Setup" in left column
Click "Wireless Settings" and look for section labelled "Wireless Advanced Settings (2.4Ghz b/g/n)"
Remove check mark, from box infront of "Enable 20/40 MHz Coexistence"
Apply Settings and log off.
Enjoy Reliable Wireless Printing after your firmware upgrade.
Was there particular reason you updated firmware? Logic tells me, you better go back to the previous f/w. I always wait to make sure new firmware works B4 I move to update new firmware. Often firmware breaks something else while trying to something. Firmware update is serious matter.
Wifi stuff should be banned while we are sleeping! On my R8500 only the 2.4Ghz remain open!
