Hi all!
I'm having some problems with my network printer and hope you can help me
I have this configuration:
- Office network
Main router ( 192.168.1.1 )
DHCP enabled ( range 192.168.1.3 -> 192.168.1.15 )
Connected with ISP data.
Network Printer ( Brother ) on 192.168.1.252
Everything working as expected. I can print from any computer and device connected with WiFi and navigate correctly.
- Home network
A LAN cable starts from the "Main router" and reach the near apartment.
Here, there is a switch with 2 cables: the first goes straight in my desktop pc and another in a Wireless N router TL-WR841N.
My PC works flawlessly, I can navigate and print with the Network Printer correctly.
The WR841N router is connected with a LAN cable from the switch into is WAN port.
His static ip is 192.168.1.251, and creates a subnet with DHCP from 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.108 ( for some notebooks and phones, tablets and so on ).
With any of this devices I can't "see" the network printer.
I think the problem can be fixed connecting the WR841N in the LAN port instead of the WAN and disabling the DHCP, but I don't want to do this unless it's the only way.
So, there is another way to fix this??
Thanks in advance for your answers!
