Having trouble setting up a Xerox Phaser wireless printer to the Nighthawk router? The printer message reads "IP address not recognized".

Issue was internal with the Xerox printer. Rep came out and first set it up as a direct print from devices to Xerox Phaser (with a password) but that was so slow I asked him to please set it up through the net gear router which turned out to be must faster. Works fine now.

Hi lkdnv,

Make sure the IP address is set to dynamic on the printer and not static.

  Thank you. I will try that. Waiting for Xerox to receive a new wifi part that they believe is faulty.

    Haven't received the new (wifi) part yet. Received a UPS notice today that it will be here by end of day tomorrow (Monday). Thanks.
