MikroTik

Hi All

I have a wireless canon printer that i can connect perfectly when the printer is connected to the CAPsMAN router (MAIN) and my mac is connected to the main router as well.

The problem is that the printer is nearer the AP (CAP) and when my mac is connected to the AP as well as the printer they cant find each other.

Why would this be? is there a block that i look for?

Thanks

you need to enable client to client forwarding for the CAPsMAN configuration as it is disabled by default.

Thanks for your reply.

Is this easy to do?

I got it working thanks. I can now connect my mac to the AP and ptinter to the AP and i am able to use it.

The problem that im having now is that i want the printer to remain on the AP (CAP) but i want to join my MAIN router wifi and be able to communicate with the printer. How am i able to do this as this is not working currently.

Thanks

Sorted! All works now.

I experienced the same issue. Enabled the client to client forwarding helped for wireless client accessing the wireless printer, but the problem still exists for wired devices accessing the printer unless I enable the local FW as well. Does anyone have a solution ?

Hello, i've got the same issue here as well.

My Setup:
1x RB2011UAS > running CAPsMAN
2x RBcAPGi-5acD2nD with enabled WLan Roaming
1x Canon ip7250 connected via Wireless (IEEE 802.11g)

It works but until the Printer get's the Job, it toke 4 Ever (at least 2 min)

does anybody have an idea?

Same as my problem.. everything connected between My Thinkpad - CAP (Hotspot) - Epson L385 Printer (Static IP, IP Binding, Walled Garden) and looks fine.. I could ping my printer and install printer driver from CD but when it get job to print it tooks 1 minute and failed to print.. I tried to print from my Asus Smartphone with iPrint for android and it said "communication fail"..

I though something wrong with my Epson L385 Printer.. so I made my Asus Smartphone as Hotspot (My Thinkpad - Asus Smartphone (Hotspot) - Epson L385 Printer) to test it.. and it worked and fast to print.. didn't fail like CAP (Capsman)..

So what did I missed from Capsman Configuration :
- client to client forwarding (on)
- multicast-helper (full)

Any solution would be appreciated..
