Wireless LAN report
If the wireless LAN report that printed shows that the connection failed, check the error code on the printed report
and refer to the following instructions.
If you need assistance during setup and want to contact Brother Customer Service, make sure you
have your SSID (Network Name) and Network Key ready. We cannot assist you in locating this
information.
1) Check the documentation provided with your wireless access point/router.
2) The initial SSID 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 your Internet provider.
