Brother Printer Wifi Issues

Wi-Fi issues are common with all network printers. Several factors might be causing issues with your printer if you are not able to connect it to your Wi-Fi network. To troubleshoot your Brother printer WiFi issues, keep reading the instructions given below.

First, place your printer closer to the router to reduce Wi-Fi interference.

Verify that you have entered the correct network name (SSID) and password while configuring the wireless settings on the printer’s control panel.

If necessary, restart the printer and reconnect it to the wireless network.

In case you are connecting the router to the wireless network for the first time, you can use the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) method.

Make sure to complete the WPS process within two minutes.

If the problem persists, open the default browser on your Windows computer and download the Network Connection Repair Tool from the official Brother site.

After completing the download, run the tool to fix the Brother printer Wi-Fi issues.

When the User Account Control prompts, click Yes to allow the tool to make changes to your computer.

Next, check the wireless connection status of your printer by printing the WLAN report.

Before starting, verify that your printer is turned on and the top cover has been closed.

On the printer’s control panel, press and hold down the Power button until the Ready LED lights up.

To print the WLAN report, press the Power button five times.

If the WLAN report states that the Connection is OK and still if you cannot print or scan wirelessly, check for any errors on the printer’s control panel.

Turn off your printer and wait for a few minutes.

Restart your printer and try printing again to check if you can print remotely from your computer.

If the problem remains unsolved, reset the printer network settings to factory defaults and reconfigure it to connect to the wireless network.
