I just picked up a Samsung wifi laser printer and have trouble connecting it to my LAN (N66u), but the funny thing is it connects to the guest SSID fine....any reason why that might be??
The guest network does not have access to the LAN , so it's not a viable solution.

Would appreciate any insights....

Only reasons I could see is that there's something in the SSID or the WPA key that the printer does not like. Make sure you stick to alphanumericals for both SSID name and the key.

Also, make sure you didn't enable MAC Filtering.
 
Thanks. I had the n66u set to N only tx and changed it auto, which then worked, even thought the printer claims to work in 802.11n ... Maybe defective network card?
This printer is taking more time than it's worth lol
