Belkin Wireless Router F6d4230 Software

Here's something important to note! On schedule, folks, reboot your Belkin F6D4230-4-v3 router! Though routers are built to constantly be running at all times, simple tweaks like regular power cycling (a fancy way of saying, unplugging the power cord and shoving it back up) helps with most issues. Rebooting your Belkin F6D4230-4-v3 can fix Internet connection problems, improve slow moving connections, and resolve wireless issues altogether. Try unplugging your Belkin modem on a quarterly basis to stay proactive (Never reset; always reboot router)

Belkin Wireless Router F6d4230 Software

I have a Photosmart C7280 printer connected wirelessly on my home network through a Belkin F6D4230-4 v1 router. Whenever there is a power interruption or the router is reset, a different IP address (within the range of 192.168.2.2 and 192.168.2.9) gets assigned to the printer when the router comes back online. This action requires every computer on the network (total of up to 9 computers) reinstall the driver and reset all printing preferences on each computer individually. How can I assign a static IP address to the printer so the router will recognize that address each time it resets and not assign a different address each time the power goes off (all too frequently in my area)?

Thank you CherylG, you have guided me to fixing my IP address difficulties. Through several router reboots, printer reboots, software re-installations on two computers and all the manipulations of the failed tests that you sent me the directions for, my printer has remained on 192.168.2.11 but still may print black, may print blue and may print green, but will never print the correct colors. NOT EVEN CLOSE! I will start a new thread and probably start another 3/4" stack of communications and spend another 6 months to year trying to make my printer print colors - or even print black. I just hope I can be more successful than I was previously until I caught you available to answer a question.
