Troubleshooting
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.
How can I find the wireless security information (SSID* and Network Key**)?
1) Check the documentation provided with your wireless access point/router.
2) The default 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.
* If the WLAN access point/router is not broadcasting the SSID, the SSID will not automatically be detected.
You must manually enter the SSID name. See Configuring your machine when the SSID is not broadcasting
in the Network User’s Guide.
**The Network Key may also be described as the Password, Security Key, or Encryption Key.
