Adding a Print Server To a Wireless Network - Discuss

Some broadband routers feature print server support that allows you to share compatible USB printers across a home network. This week, a member of our message board wanted to add this capability to their network, even though their base router doesn't include a print server:

"I have a 2Wire 2700HG-E wireless gateway (modem/router combo) with two laptops connected wirelessly. I also have a USR5461 wireless router with a built in USB printer port. Can I connect the USR5461 to the 2700HG-E in order to use the USB port to wirelessly connect a printer?"
