I've got a problem at the moment where when my new LAN router (an Asus RT-N66U) is rebooted a couple of minutes later a network printer starts to print off sheet after sheet of alphabet soup. Even if I reduce the devices on the LAN to just cable modem, router & printer, this still happens.
ASUS support have yet to provide any useful suggestions.
The router does have a built-in print server which I've disabled as it's meant to service a USB-attached printer, whereas mine is standalone elsewhere on the network.
I was wondering how I might try to intercept all network traffic between router and printer to try to find out what is causing this. I'm assuming that the router is doing some sort of device discovery on the network and - for some reason - the printer is printing whatever is being sent to it as if it were print data rather than Q&A.
Do you have any suggestions?
