I am trying to get my Epson 2100 to work on my network with my new NetGear Router:
It worked OK with a simple Ethernet Hub. My NetGear router assigns my EpsonNet Net adaptor/print server an IP address ending in 3. Through the router you can only manually reserve or set IPs, but only in the range from 2 to 51, for the last number. Epson WinAssist will only recognise IP addresses ending in 255. Epson Webmaster will not change the address of the adaptor. I think it is possible to get Win XP to change the range of IPs available to the adaptor... Should you really have to edit the windows (XP) registry to get a printer to work? Neither NetGear nor Epson have been much help so far.
