Wireless setup problems
The Brother print server is not found during setup by the Wireless Device Setup Wizard.
1 Make sure that the machine is powered on, is on-line and ready to print.
2 Move your computer closer to the Brother machine and try again.
3 Reset the print server back to its default factory settings and try again. For the information how to reset
to the factory default settings, see Restoring the network settings to factory default on page 87.
Why do I have to change my machine’s network setting to “Wired LAN” during setup
although I am trying to setup Wireless LAN?
