Hi Amro,
You should be able to save the configuration of your Router
to a file. Then, if it screws up, you simply re-load the
backup configuration.
I'm rather up against it just now, so do study the manual.
George.

Hi again George,
Yeah I'll reinstall the port but please what did you mean by
"Ideally you then need to save the configuration, such that
you can re-load it again when it screws up again."
How can I save it? And how I can re load it? Or you just
meant to make a note of the steps needed to configure the
port?
Cheers,
Amro

Hi Amro,
Re-installing the Vigor printer port usually solves
the problem.
Ideally you then need to save the configuration,
such that you can re-load it again when it screws up again.

George, thanks so much for taking the time to help.
But actually I'm aware of that page; it's the one I used to
configure my printer about a month ago in the first plaice!
The printer then worked fine up to four days ago when it
decided to start printing out gibberish! :@. I'm not even
sure that reconfiguring my computer to use the Vigor's
printer port would solve the problem. Worth a shot though as
there don't seem to be that many options left to try...
Thanks again for your help!
Amro

Yeah, George, you're right, I'm using the
USB port. You reckon that what is causing the problem then?
Would that leave me with one option i.e. getting a printer
with an Ethernet port? Thanks.

Amro,
As you using the Vigor's USB port,
or one of the RJ45 connections?
The USB port is notoriously
unreliable, and may require re-installing. Sad to say, I
have up on mine in the end.
George.

Hi all,
Something strange is going on with
my printer. Any text I print comes out as series of
apostrophes, question marks, stars and all sorts of simples
and characters. I don't have any language packs installed on
my computer. My HP printer is linked to my home network
through a Vigor router, and I'm getting the same print out
results using either of my laptops which are running on XP
SP2.
I've no idea what's causing this nor
where I can go and look for clues. The only thing I've tried
so far was restarting all the devices and needless to say
that it didn't work. And ah, the printer was working ok up
to a week ago.
Any help please? Even an idea on
where to start from would be grate!
Thanks for any thoughts I may
receive!
AmroB
