Linksys WPS54G

Report abuse

Running the setup it finds the WPS54G server,IP 198.168.0.101, but after hi-lighting, and clicking next, after a delay, a window opens that says "network busy, or device not found". I'm running Vista home premium, on a Dell XPS laptop. This server has always worked great on Win XP.
I have the same problem.

This link should help, too. It is just for your Printe server.
