Yes I can ping the repeater. In fact the firmware is a web app which I access to configure it and change its settings. The HP printer has the option to be set using a DHCP server or manually. I set it up manually as it will be easier to "find" the printer I assumed. So yes the IP is 192.168.1.20. ip route show gives: default via 192.168.0.1 dev wlp4s0 proto dhcp metric 600 192.168.0.0/24 dev wlp4s0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.134 metric 600 192.168.122.0/24 dev virbr0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.122.1 linkdown So I'll have to add this route to any machine needing to connect to the printer right? Thank you. Fred
