Losing connection to Airprint printer through Wireless Access Point

Hello,

iPad 2 with latest iOS version
Main Router: NETGEAR WNDR3700v2
Wireless Access Point: Belkin N150
Printer: HP M1212nf Laser printer

When I walk downstairs and the iPad2 connects to the Belkin WAP, I lose connection to the Printer every single time. If I restart the iPad it will connect, but then it loses the printer connection again when I walk upstairs and connect to the main NETGEAR router.

Is tit a common issue to lose connection to the Airprint printer when moving between a wireless router and a WAP?

Is there anything I can do to correct this?

Thanks...

If that doesn't work I would recommend an HP 1525nw AirPrint enabled color laser( about $250). I have worked with it.Try it.

I think they were just passing on their own current configuration - not trying to be funny. I do hope you haven't frightened them off the forum with your rather sharp comment !

Have you done a search in this forum for Airprint ? There seem to be several threads on this subject which may prove helpful t you.
