For Wireless Network Users Connecting the Brother machine to the wireless network IMPORTANT You must have the wireless setting you wrote down for your network in step 19 on page 30 before you proceed. 20 Configure the wireless settings (typical Wireless Setup in infrastructure mode) a On your machine, press MENU. Press a or b to display Network and press Network. Press WLAN. Press Setup Wizard. When Switch Network interface to wireless? is displayed, press Yes to accept. This will start the wireless setup wizard. To cancel, press No. b The machine will search for available SSIDs. If a list of SSIDs is displayed, press a or b to choose the SSID you wrote down in step 19-a on page 30. Press the SSID you want to connect with. If you are using an authentication and encryption method that requires a password, go to c. If your authentication method is Open System and your encryption mode is None, go to d. Note It will take several seconds to display a list of available SSIDs. If a list of SSIDs is not displayed, make sure your access point is on. Move your machine closer to the access point and try starting from a again. If your access point is set to not broadcast the SSID you will have to manually add the SSID name. For details, see the Network User's Guide on the CD-ROM. c Enter the password you wrote down in step 19-a on page 30 on the Touchscreen. You can use the d and c keys to move the cursor left and right. The letters appear in this order: lower case and then upper case. To enter numbers or special letters, press repeatedly until the character you want to enter appears. (For more information, see Entering Text for Wireless Settings on page 45.) Press OK when you have entered all the characters, then press Yes to apply your settings. Go to d. d Your machine will now try to connect to your wireless network using the information you have entered. If successful, Connected will appear for 60 seconds on the LCD. It may take a few minutes to connect to your wireless network. Note If the LCD displays Wrong Password, the password you entered did not match with your access point. Verify your network settings collected in step 19-a on page 30, then repeat a to c to make sure you have entered the correct information. If the LCD displays Connection Fail, make sure your access point is on, and verify your network settings collected in step 19-a on page 30. Temporarily move your machine as close as possible to the access point, then repeat a to c to make sure you have entered the correct information. If your access point does not have DHCP enabled you will need to manually configure the IP address, subnet mask and gateway of the machine to suit your network. See Chapter 6 of the Network User's Guide for details. Wireless setup is now complete. A four level indicator at the left of your machine's LCD will show the wireless signal strength of your access point/router. To install MFL-Pro Suite, continue to step 21. 31 Wireless Network
