<0> Hi
<1> Hello, all I have a networking question. I have a home wireless network, and I have a network printer. however, I want to hook up the network printer to a computer (that has two lan connections). I want to use a lan connection on this PC. How do I configure this?
<1> The computers will go through the wireless network to the second port on the PC. Any suggestions?
<2> bridge the ports
<1> Alright sorry
<1> My connection started to crap out
<1> Did anyone respond?
<3> let me reread it
<3> you dont need to networks connections on the computer
<3> just connect the computer to the network and the printer to the computer
<3> then add the printer to another computer as a network printer
<3> you dont need 2 lan connections
<3> are you trying to share an internet connection?
<1> Well we want to use the lan connection on teh PC though
<1> Well we have a wireless network setup
<3> you only need one lan connection why do you want to use both
<1> Well you're right :)
<1> Yeah we're just using 1 because all the computer are on the wireless network
<1> However, I want other PCs on the network to be able to connect to the printer and be able to print out.
<3> where does your internet connect to
<1> My internet is through the wireless network
<3> ok through a wiresless router
<1> There is a printer Yeah
<3> i know there is a printer
<3> and the other computers how do they connect
<1> Sorry, that was a combination of two messages
<3> wireless or wired
<1> The other computers are connected wirelessly to the router
<1> Except one PC
<1> Sorry this isn't my network, but I'm positive that this is possible
<4> which is wired?
<3> and that one pc does it go to the router
<4> give them all the same workgroup(***uming windows0
<4> let em stew for a few minutes
<1> Well the printer is connected to a lan port on one of the wireless PCs
<4> huh?
<4> that makes no sense
<3> workgroup dosnt matter
<4> windows98s makes it easier for browsing
<3> i havnt gotten to the printer
<3> it does but fot this that dosnt matter
<3> the one computer that is wired where does it connect to
<3> ?
<4> odd printer that hooks directly to another PC via cat5
<3> korn ill let you help him
<3> have fun
<1> There is one computer that is wired to the wireless router
<1> The other PCs are connected using a wireless connection
<4> ok
<4> so whats the problem?
<4> you cant' find the printer?
<1> Yeah
<4> try hookign the printer upto the ROUTER
<4> nto to another PC
<3> take it away and figure this out. i was trying to get a picture of the whole thing and you keep going in different directions
<3> so have fun
<4> or if you are connecting to antoehr PC use lpt1 or usb
<4> windows98s I already ahve a picture of it
<4> Go upgrade to a real OS
<3> korn dont be a jerk
<4> Excuse me
<3> i wasnt to you
<1> No the printer is connected to a PC with a lan wire. The problem is that they want the printer on a different floor than the router
<3> you were a jerk
<4> [20:46] <3> take it away and figure this out. i was trying to get a picture of the whole thing and you keep going in different directions
<4> that my sir is beign a jerk
<1> That was directed to me probably :(
<4> no worries
<3> no it wasnt
<4> Covell does the printer work currently
<3> it was directed at korn
<1> yes
<4> So its directly hooked up to the router? or to a PC?
<1> The PC that is directly connected to the printer will print fine
<4> oh
<3> i wasn trying to get answers to questions and he kept going other directions
<4> just share the printer then....
<3> and was being rude
<4> windows98s guess what
<4> Ignored
<1> It's a network printer, does it need to be shared?
<3> fine korn
<3> see if i care
<3> same to you
<4> Covell if its connected directly to a PC
<4> yes it needs to be shared
<4> Although
<3> covell i would do the same thing he is a jerk
<3> but i dont care
<3> have fun
<4> Covell wanna hear somethign funny
<4> I don't have him on ignore :)
<3> korn your an idiot
<3> lets see if you see that
<4> you're
<1> Wow
<4> Covell goto printer properties and make sure the printer is shared :)
<1> Well anyways, after I share it, what will I have to do to get the other printers to connect?
<4> well if teh other computers can see each other already
<3> korn your a jerk
<4> then you should jsut be able to browse to the printer, and if they have teh same OS the drivers will be installed automatically
<4> you'r
<4> you're grr
<1> How do I find the network path for this printer?
<1> I found the name of the printer, but can I go throught he computer name? I have a really mixed network. XP, 98, OSX
<1> can I just \\computername\printername and get connected that way?
<4> sure
<1> Do they have to be on the same workgroup?
<1> I can't seem to get the win98 machine to connect to the printer
<1> I'm doing a networked printer add, and it is not able to find it if I do the \\computername\printername
<5> what a stupid network
