Hi all
I am hopeful someone can assist with the below....already starting to regret getting the c3320i!!
I just installed a C3320i but it wont receive an IP address from the customers network.... I have set it to DHCP and also tried a known free static IP address but still cant connect........
This machine was setup on our network before taking to the customers where it received the IP address from our network.. They also have a C308 which we installed a while back and that is fine...I connected the c3320i to the same port the c308 was on but still not working with DHCP or Static IP.
I have connected the C3320i via a crossover cable directly to my laptop and I can access the printers web page with no issues...I then connected my laptop to their network with a normal ethernet cable and received an IP address instantly and I can access the internet on their network this way...so I cancelled out MAC filtering as my laptop received the IP address..
I have reset the network via the web interface, cycled power, but still will not receive an IP address...
I have connected it directly to customers switch - nope!
The firmware level is 'GC2 N4'.
I have turned off IPV6...no difference...
The only way I could connect via the customers network was by installing a Netgear wifi extender with a built in 5 port switch. I connected the wifi extender to the customers wifi and then ethernet cable to printer and is working fine....weird!
The wifi extender is just a workaround so need to get it sorted without it..
I am crossing my fingers ppl!
TIA
