BT Home Hub Doesn't Recognise Network Printer

[iantrader]

Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can help with this.

I've been using an ADSL router and a hub to connect a few PCs and an HP Laserjet 2100 Network printer. Worked fine.

I've just replaced the router with a BT Home Hub (the new black one). It recognises all the PCs but not the printer. I can't even telnet into the printer's configuration page with its IP address.

Disabling the Hub's Firewall doesn't work.

The Hub's instructions are rather lacking but I'm sure there must be an easy solution .

Can anyone help, please?

Theres properly an IP Conflict, as in the Home Hub is trying to GIVE the printer an IP and the printer is trying to GIVE the router its own IP.

I own one of the first Home Hubs to come out. I haven't been particularly impressed with it. It always needs reseting, and it seems to be built for the dark ages (but in white). This could just be I have one of the first ones to go on sale, but hey...

I haven't configured it that much but I know between firmware updates the Home Hub has now got a configuration page for you to dedicate IP addresses to certain machines.

Hope this helps...
