because of other problems, xfinity just came and provided a
new modem/router/wifi.  i logged into xfinity's device and
set up reserved ip addresses for my stuff in accordance with
/etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.1       alphacent.localdomain  alphacent

10.0.0.1         xfinity.localdomain xfinity
10.0.0.63        aldeberon.localdomain aldeberon
10.0.0.62        d110.localdomain d110
10.0.0.61        unknown
10.0.0.60        alphacent.localdomain alphacent
50.87.218.82     bluedan

all is well, except for the printer.  i went through the
wireless setup on the printer which declared success, but
the xfinitiy modem shows it as an offline device --
un-pingable.

what's going on?

ole dan

I swapped out my gateway with Comcast last month because of the speed
increases back in March. My HP printer was connected to the previous and
is connected to the new, via Ethernet. The printer apparently retained
its IP address in its settings, so once it was connected to the new
gateway, it just worked.

If the above is the IP address of the printer and HPLIP is already
installed, as superuser/root, running:

hp-setup -a 10.0.0.62

in a terminal window, should otherwise configure it.
