confused with N66R

[DavidinSA]

I just setup my new N66R.
Having several issues.
Set everything up with my laptop. Wired connection. Downloaded Asus printer share through GUI.
Everything works fine on the laptop.
The issues are:
1) other computers, all wired, cannot see the USB connected printer
2) cannot access the router GUI from any of the other computers (my thought was that I needed to download the Asus printer share on each computer)

When I go to the windows network sharing center, and view full map, all clients are seen, including the Samsung TV.
This is true for all computers.
I also see all the clients through the Asus GUI on the laptop.
One computer is a win7 and the other a Win8.1.
Printer is a Canon MG6120.

Since my laptop accesses and responds like it should, I would think that all the other computers should also.

Any thoughts on what to try?

Thanks

All computers that you want to print to the printer attached to your router, shall have the Asus printer utility and the printer driver installed.

Did you probably add the one computer to the: Advanced Settings>Administration>System - Client List (at the bottom of the page)?
If so, only *that* computer can access the GUI. Most people leave the list empty to allow any computer on the LAN side access to the GUI.

Thanks for the info.
Got the print service working.
Downloaded to usb flash drive then took to each of the computers and downloaded on them. Thanks.

Checked the administration setting. No computers in the list. Tried adding all the computers into the list. Still cannot access GUI from other computers although it appears they are seeing the router because once when I tried to access from the other Win7 computer, it said I could not log on due to someone else being logged in. I had the GUI running on my laptop at that time.

I will look more into this after christmas. Have to work the next two days.
I also just purchased a Synology DS412+ that i have to get up and running so i will be busy for awhile.

Thanks you so much for your help.
If you have any other thoughts on the other computers not being able to log into the GUI let me know.

The router limits the number of logins to one, to open the GUI on another computer, you must close the GUI on the first (maybe even hit the logout button).
