Welcome. Today we're going to connect your Brother MFC-L2690DW to a wireless computer using the setup wizard (Covers MFC-L2717DW Wi-Fi setup too)

This video will cover multiple models and operating systems even though your machine may not match the model on the screen the overall process will be the same.

Navigate to your installer file and double-click to begin installation. When the device installation window opens choose your language and click "Next."

Accept the license agreement and then click "Next."

Select wireless network connection and click "Next."

When the “Detecting existing wireless network settings” window appears verify your Network Name and click “Next”

In most cases the setup wizard will be able to automatically apply your wireless settings and connect your machine to the network.

Your Brother machine will now retrieve the network settings from your computer

Arrow down until “Setup Wizard” appears then press “OK”

Use the up and down arrows to select your SSID or Network Name and press “OK” Please note that if your network is set to hide the network name you will have to manually add your network name.

Enter your Network Key, using the keypad. Repeated presses on the keys will cycle through the available characters.

Confirm that your Network Key is correct and press “OK”

When prompted to apply settings, press the up arrow

Once “Connected” appears on the LCD, press “OK”
