A new HP printer which has a demon mind of its own.

We replaced our modem a while back and have had smooth sailing ever since. We have a huge snow/ice storm coming so I just hope we don't lose power. I'm glad your computer problems were fixed. We also just replaced a printer that only worked when it wanted to, damn thing!Casa Mariposahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16647089868277238456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513726410126955599.post-90152861326689994132014-02-24T07:44:54.531-04:002014-02-24T07:44:54.531-04:00Hi Martine, my problem was slightly different to y...Hi Martine, my problem was slightly different to yours.<br />It was the wifi extender that wasn't sending the wifi signal upstairs. The modem was fine, so no rebooting necessary.<br />I've got lots of area to cover so there are two access points and an extender to make sure the entire house gets the secured wifi signal.<br />Good to see you!!VirginiaChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17282569773671179047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513726410126955599.post-40986366700019381612014-02-24T02:55:45.298-04:002014-02-24T02:55:45.298-04:00Hi Virginia, How strange that you should write abo...Hi Virginia, How strange that you should write about this on Feb. 23rd, exactly the same day on which my internet connection said the same thing: connected, yet no internet access! In the morning the signal came and went ... In the afternoon, it never came back! It took a 35 minute call with my internet provider to set things straight. No new equiment was required ... a simple reset of the modem did the trick. Fingers crossed! And good luck with your new toys ...
