Not too easy to get connected to the internal wireless network, but I finally got it to work just fine.
I decided to investigate further. I noticed that after I unplugged the unit and reset it, everything came up fine until the wireless light turned on, then 5 seconds later it would freeze. I figured it was a problem with the wireless functionality communicating with my router. Then I came across a review here on Amazon that described the exact same problem I was having and in that particular review, they mentioned their router being a 2wire DLS modem which is the same as mine. I tried reseting the unit again and before the wireless light came on I quickly navigated to the wireless settings and reset them to the factory default. Sure enough the computer functioned as normal after that.
So I concluded that I could use the printer normally by connecting it to my PC via USB but I am taking it back because the wireless functionality is useless with my router. So a word to the wise, if you are using a 2wire wireless router, I would not recommend this printer at all.
