Before you begin
First you must configure the wireless network settings of your machine to communicate with your 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.
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-J870DW can be used in both a wired and wireless network, only one of the connection
methods can be used at a time.
The following instructions are for infrastructure mode (connected to a computer through an access point/router).
Infrastructure Mode
a Access point/router
b Wireless network machine (your machine) connected to the access point/router
c Wireless-capable computer connected to the access point/router
d Wired computer connected to the access point/router
e Mobile device connected to the access point/router
Please make sure the wireless network settings of the machine match the access point/router.
If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the machine, you must reset the network settings
before you can configure the wireless settings again.
On your machine, press (Settings). Press All Settings.
Press a or b to display Network. Press Network.
Press a or b to display Network Reset. Press Network Reset.
Press Yes to accept. Hold down Yes for two seconds to confirm.
To set up your machine in Ad-hoc mode (connected to a wireless-capable computer without an access
point/router), see instructions in the Software and Network User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.
To view the Software and Network User’s Guide:
