Hi everyone, I am having a spot of bother since upgrading to Lion.
M HP C4580 printer will not seem to connect wirelessly to my iMac anymore, if I use a USB cable everything is fine, but this is not ideal as my printer is away from my mac.
Can someone, anyone help????

I am struggling to get an IP address, i am using a net gear WNR200 router. Where would this show up in the router settings?

I have just printed the wireless network test report from my printer and it came back as saying "your printer cannot find your access point,check that your HP printer network name (SSID) matches your access point network name exactly." and the report says that my printer network name is not found with a big FAIL at the side!
I sound like a right numpty but so far everything has just worked with my mac! So how would one go about this?
