Ad-hoc Mode

Ad-hoc networks (also sometimes referred to as peer-to-peer networks) do not have a central Access point. Each Wireless client communicates directly with each other. When the Brother wireless device is set in this mode, it receives all print/scan jobs directly from the computer sending the print data.

Channels

Wireless networks use Channels. There are up to 14 channels that can be used. However, in many countries the number of channels available are restricted. For more information, see NC-2200w Print/ Scan server Specifications on page A-4.

Network Name (SSID/ESSID)

Each wireless network has its own unique network name (technically referred to as SSID/ESSID). The network name is assigned on the Access Point or the ad-hoc network devices and should match the Access Point or the ad-hoc network devices you want to associate.
