I got a Linksys Wireless Print Server and tried hooking it up and it works with my laptop when the Printers wired to the server wired to the wireless router. I want the PrintServer in a different room from the router but when I try to go wireless with Printserver it won't work with my laptop (or any other computer)...

I've gone through all of linksys' troubleshooting, I figured I'd come here before I get so fed up with it and just toss it....

Have you tried running the setup disk on the laptop when it was unwired?
I assume you connected the print server to you router then ran the setup disc.
Try running the set up disc from the laptop in wireless mode.
Is the wireless light on the print server green?
Have you checked the ssid on the print server?
