Before configuring your machine, we recommend writing down your wireless network settings. You will need this information before you continue with the configuration.

  1. Check and write down the current wireless network settings.
    Network Name (SSID)
      
    Network Key (Password)
       

    For example:

    Network Name (SSID)
    HELLO
    Network Key (Password)
    12345
    image
    If your router uses WEP encryption, enter the Network Key (Password) used as the first WEP key. Your Brother machine supports the use of the first WEP key only.
  2. Press image [Settings]>[Network]>[WLAN(Wi-Fi)]>[Find Wi-Fi Network].
  3. When [Enable WLAN? Do you want to continue?] appears, press [Yes].
    The wireless setup wizard starts. To cancel, press [No].
  4. The machine searches for your network and displays a list of available SSIDs. Press image or image to display the SSID you want to connect to, and then press it.
  5. Press [OK].
  6. Do one of the following:
    • If using an authentication and encryption method that requires a Network Key (Password), enter the Network Key (Password) you wrote down in the first step.

      When you have entered all the characters, press [OK].

    • If your authentication method is Open System and your encryption mode is None, go to the next step.
  7. The machine attempts to connect to the wireless device you have selected.
If your wireless device is connected successfully, the LCD displays [Connected].
