    Can't connect to router or get outside network

    I have a KM bizhub 287 that can't scan to the customer's offsite email server. After some checking I found that it can't ping the router, but it can ping the other computers on the network. All one subnet. This happens whether it's on static or DHCP.

    Obviously it's a problem with the ISP-provided router, but the customer's ISP won't admit to it. Any idea what could be causing this?

    By router do you mean the gateway? Could be that they are using MAC address filtering.
    Whatever

    Re: Can't connect to router or get outside network

    We had a large customer that used a whitelist to identify suitable SMTP senders. So even though I knew the credentials, the SMTP server would not accept emails if the sender was not on the whitelist. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    Go to one of the customers PC, in search box type "CMD" & type "ipconfig" press enter, now enter the gateway subnet mask & DNS into the copier.
    Also from the command prompt type "ipconfig/all" note the DNS & enter this into the copier also.

    No need to reboot the copier, & try a scan again.

    Re: Can't connect to router or get outside network

    Don't know if this is relevant, or helps....I've just installed a C227 to replace a C224, both using the same gmail account, and both using the same IP, the new m/c would scan to email, kept getting "server connect error" code "107", the gmail account was fine as I could log into it, I set up the gmail account on our showroom m/c and it worked, downloaded the settings via USB from showroom to customers m/c..just in case I'd done it wrong, still wouldn't work...initialized network & started again....still got the same error...thought I'd try a different IP....so changed the last 2 digits from 13 to 14 and it worked...it would appear that when the new m/c was installed...the IP got "blacklisted"
    Tip for the day; Treat every problem as your dog would.....If you cant eat it or f*ck it....then p*ss on it & walk away...

    Re: Can't connect to router or get outside network

    Hi, the reason for this problem could be anything:
    - DNS not configured.
    - Incorrect network parameters.
    - Router ports blocked.
    - Active firewall.
    - MAC address filter.
    And more...

    This is first thing i do when i have an issue, set device to DHCP and let it pick up network settings and new IP. I have one customer that scanning to office365 kept failing and changing IP would resolve the issue. Also have a council contract that only allows scan to folder if domain is configured.

    Re: Can't connect to router or get outside network

    I'm with copiertech on this one. An incorrect gateway won't allow you outside of the network, and incorrect DNS won't allow you to connect to the name of the offsite server. I wouldn't assume that there is a problem with their ISP-provided router...

    SMB only affects scan to folder, the OP has issue with email.
