Hey Edward,

The router logs aren't great unfortunately, I've checked the dhcp leases but can't see any reference to the printer itself.

What I think I'll try is setting another wireless network up and seeing if it gets the same default address or not.

Thanks again!

Sounds like a reasonable step. Good luck.

In case anybody else has this issue, particularly with the BT Homehub 5........

 

I created a wireless hotspot on my mobile phone, installed the printer to that and it worked.  Reinstalled it to the BT router and same problem.  I ended up having to reset the router to default and starting it from scratch.  Now the printer works again.

 

Im just glad I dont have to buy a new printer!
