Configuring your machine for a wireless network (Not available for MFC-5490CN and MFC-5890CN)

Confirm your wireless network setup method

There are four methods to configure your machine for a wireless network; by using the machine’s control panel (recommended), using SES, WPS or AOSS from the control panel menu, using the PIN Method of Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ or using the Brother installer application. The setup process will be different depending on your network environment.

Configuration using the machine’s control panel Setup Wizard to configure your wireless network machine

We recommend that you use the machine’s control panel to configure your wireless network settings. By using the control panel Setup Wizard function, you can easily connect your Brother machine to your wireless network. You must know your wireless network settings before you proceed with this installation. (See Using the Setup Wizard from the control panel on page 27.)

Configuration using the SES/WPS/AOSS control panel menu (Infrastructure mode only)

If your wireless access point (A) supports either SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (PBC 1) or AOSS™, you can configure the machine without a computer. (See Using the SES/WPS/AOSS control panel menu to configure your machine for a wireless network on page 31.)
