WNDR3700 and Printing

I have the above router with NetGear .68 firmware.

I have all of my G based computers, including my wireless G based printer connected to 2.4 GHz. I have my N's connects to 5GHz. The world is good. Both sets can surf the internet great ...

But ...

My N's cannot print to my printer while on the 5GHz.

Is it possible to get this to work without having to flip my N's to the 2.4GHz band?

I set the 3700 to be the DHCP server, versus my CLEAR WiMax modem.

Things seem to be working well now ...

FYI
 
Yeah most likely your devices were on different networks...

example... one dhcp server was serving out 192.168.2.0/24 while your other dhcp server was giving out 192.168.1.0/24 and unless you have your router setup to route between those then you won't be able to print or access devices between the 2 networks.
