Wireless network troubleshooting

Wireless setup problems

The Brother print server is not found during setup using the automatic installer application
on the CD-ROM.
1
Make sure that the printer is powered on, is on-line and ready to print.
2
Move your Brother printer closer to the computer 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 8-11.

Wireless connection problem

The wireless network connection is sometimes disabled.
The wireless network connection status is affected by the environment where the Brother printer and other
wireless devices are located. The following conditions may cause connection problems:
■
A concrete or metal framed wall is installed between the Brother printer and the access point.
■
Electric appliances such as televisions, computer appliances, microwave ovens, intercoms,
mobile/cellular phones and the battery chargers and AC power adapters are installed close to your
network.
■
A broadcast station or high-tension wire is located close to your network.
■
A fluorescent light is being switching ON or OFF.
