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 wireless 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 wireless 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.
