  • Page 118: How Can I Improve Wireless Signal Strength

    Networking How can I improve wireless signal strength? A common reason wireless printers fail to communicate over a network is poor wireless signal quality. If the signal is too weak, too distorted, or blocked by an object, then it cannot carry information between the access point (wireless router) and the printer.

  • Page 119: Wireless Network

    Networking RRANGE THE NETWORK TO REDUCE SIGNAL ABSORPTION Even when the wireless signal is able to pass through an object, it is slightly weakened. If it passes through too many objects, then it can be significantly weakened. All objects absorb part of the wireless signal when it passes through them, and certain types of objects absorb enough to cause communications problems.

  • Page 122: What Is An Ip Address

    Networking Notes: • A list of MAC addresses can be set on an access point (wireless router) so that only devices with matching MAC addresses are allowed to operate on the network. This is called MAC filtering. If MAC filtering is enabled in your access point and you want to add a printer to your network, then the MAC address of the printer must be included in the MAC filter list.
