how to add the mac address of my printer to wireless router

‎01-01-2012 03:18 PM

When I print off a Wireless Network Test Report, I get a statement showing...

 

"MAC address filtering may be enabled on your wireless router. This can prevent your HP printer from connecting to your wireless network during setup. If you do have MAC address filtering enabled and would like to keep it enabled, you must add the MAC address of your printer to the list of permitted devices for your wireless router before continuing."

 

Also, in the diagnostics summary everything passes except "no filtering".

 

I'm no computer genius so I don't know exactly how to break down their troubleshooting statement and proceed. My only thought was to try and do as it says to add the MAC address of the printer to the router's list of permitted devices. However, I don't know how to do that. 

 

A helpful response would be GREATLY appreciated! :smileyhappy:
