Troubleshooting

How can I find the wireless settings (Network Name (SSID) and Network Key)

* The Network Key may also be described as the Password, Security Key or Encryption Key.
* If the WLAN access point/router is set to not broadcast the SSID, the SSID will not automatically be detected.

You will have to manually enter the SSID name. See Configuring your machine when the SSID is not
broadcast
in the Network User’s Guide.

WLAN report

If the WLAN report that printed shows that the connection failed, check the error code on the printed report and
refer to the following instructions.

Please do not contact Brother Customer Service for assistance without the wireless security
information. We cannot assist you in locating your network security settings.

1) You should see the documentation provided with your WLAN access point/router.
2) The initial network name could be the manufacturer’s name or the model name.
3) If you do not know the security information, please consult the router manufacturer, your system

administrator or internet provider.

point/router.

- Temporarily place your machine within about one meter (3.3 feet) from the WLAN

access point when you are configuring the wireless settings.

- If your WLAN access point/router is using MAC address filtering, confirm the MAC

address of the Brother machine is allowed in the filter. See Print the Printer Settings

2. If you manually entered the SSID and security information (SSID/authentication

method/encryption method/Network Key) the information may be incorrect.
Reconfirm the SSID and security information and reenter the correct information as
necessary.
