For Wireless Network Interface Users
Before you begin

First you must configure the wireless network settings of your machine to communicate with your network access
point (router). After the machine is configured to communicate with your access point (router) computers on your
network will have access to the machine. To use the machine from these computers, you will need to install the
drivers and software. The following steps will guide you through the configuration and installation process.
Note
• To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother machine as close
to the network access point (router) as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between
the two devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of
your documents.
• Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and
applications. If you are printing large files, such as multi-page documents with mixed text and large graphics,
you may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer or USB for the fastest
throughput speed.
• Although the Brother MFC-8890DW can be used in a both wired and wireless network, only one of the
connection methods can be used at a time.
• If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the machine you must reset the network (LAN)
settings before you can configure the wireless settings again.
On your machine, press Menu. Press 7.
Press 0 to choose Network Reset.
Press 1 twice for Yes to accept the change.

The following instructions will offer two methods for installing your Brother machine in a wireless network environment. Both
methods are for infrastructure mode, using a wireless router or access point that uses DHCP to assign IP addresses. Choose
a configuration method and proceed to the page indicated.
a If your wireless router/access point does not support SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS™,
write down the wireless network settings of your wireless access point/router.
IMPORTANT
If you do not know this information (Network Name, WEP key, WPA2-PSK (Pre-Shared Key), LEAP or EAPFAST) you cannot continue the wireless setup. You should see the documentation provided with your
access point or wireless router, consult the router manufacturer, or your system administrator.
Item Example Record the current wireless network settings
Communication mode: (infrastructure) Infrastructure
Network name: (SSID, ESSID) HELLO
Authentication method:

AES

1
WPA/WPA2-PSK is a Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key, which lets the Brother wireless machine associate with access points using TKIP or
AES encryption (WPA-Personal). WPA/WPA2-PSK (TKIP or AES) uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is 8 or more characters in length, up to a
maximum of 63 characters.
2
The WEP key is for 64-bit encrypted networks or 128-bit encrypted networks and can contain both numbers and letters. If you do not know this
information you should see the documentation provided with your access point or wireless router. This key is a 64-bit or 128-bit value that must be
entered in an ASCII or HEXADECIMAL format.
For example:
64-bit ASCII: Uses 5 text characters
e.g. “Hello” (this is case sensitive)
64-bit Hexadecimal: Uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data
e.g. “71f2234aba”
128-bit ASCII: Uses 13 text characters
e.g.“Wirelesscomms” (this is case sensitive)
128-bit Hexadecimal: Uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data
e.g. “71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa3ba”
