I spent so much time trying to follow the instructions from the company. THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT SO EASY! Thank goodness for RUclipsrs! Why can’t the company get a clue on how to provide instructions! You saved me. I was about to throw this thing out the window.
Great info. Really pisses me off that customers have to get this kind of info from youtubers rather than from Brother. I've wasted hours dealing with their useless instructions and install software. They should have people like you working for them.
Jersey Jim, I totally agree. When I first got the Brother printer years ago it connected to my Apple network effortlessly. Later I upgraded my Internet to ATT Fiber and used their nice router. But after hours and dozens of attempts to connect the Brother I gave up and used USB. Two years later I see this video, and ten minutes later I was printing wirelessly again.
The printer was a bit complicated to hook up ruclips.net/user/postUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 but it does the job very efficiently. I like the ink wells versus the ink cartages that cost an arm and a leg. It prints quickly and the quality is excellent. It shuts off when not in use, so you have to remember to turn it on. Overall, it exceeds my expectations. I'll update my review in a couple of months.
Thank you! The WPS method was SO easy, and I never knew what that button was for on my router, so thank you again! This was so much easier than what they were pushing on the quick setup guide or on the Brother youtube video!
OMG! You are a life saver. My husband got grey hairs and lost hours of his life while trying to get it installed with the Brother information. I did it in seconds with the WPS - and was able to print from my smartphone right away. I am so proud. Although to be fair: you did it! Thank you so much.
OMG! I cannot believe Brother can’t explain this. I’ve had this printer for years, just changed wifi networks and these are FINALLY a the instructions I needed all along. Brilliant video. Thank you
i changed my router and i lost the printer wifi connection. i searched everywhere even the brother manual and I couldn't make new wifi connection. i saw your video and I entered the password manually and its done. i really appreciated for this video
New router and having the devil of a time trying to connect it. I started your video, but I couldn't tell from the router packaging whether I had WPS. I decided to proceed as if I did. Made all your selections on the printer; went over to me router (in a different part of the house), and looked all over for a WPS button - there it was! Marked wps/reset. (Or reset/wps.) That's all it took. Excellent instruction, clear unaccented English (no disrespect to the very capable non-native speakers, but sometimes, when trying to do these computer things, for example, one needs to understand the instructions without a struggle), very simple. A big Thank You.
Omg HALLELUJAH!!! The second option was super fast for me because i couldnt find a wps button in my router and had to keep running back and forth to a different room. Put in the password in 1 try. Thank you!!! So happy
Wanted to let you know I’ve been struggling with my brother laser printer for months. Your video helped me get back on line. I feel so Happy. The second way was the one that helped. I can’t thank you enough. I’m not a computer Saavy but you helped me feel that I could do this without asking my busy family for help. Thanks so much.
OMG! After watching other tutorials with no luck, I finally got my Brother printer set up with a new wifi using the WPS ( easy ) method! thank-you so much!
Thank you for this. I had started with the laboriously painful method suggested by Brother ... and I said there's got to be a better way. And by Gar you provided it! Thanks so much!
I spent hours trying to get my Spectrum router to pair with the printer, pushing a useless WPS button. Was ready to call a tech, then I found this video. I had my printer back on AirPrint in less than half an hour, even though I had to use the ‘painful’ method. I try to keep up with most of the ‘new’ technology and thank heaven for people like you who are willing to share clear and useful information. Brother could not help at all. Spectrum could not help at all. Sad commentary on corporate support. Thanks again, you saved me an expensive tech call!🎉
I watched tones of tutorial videos of diy and how not to be dummy when I use technology...your video is amazingly directed how to do it easy. It worked!!!! All you need is just a bit common sense so you'll be fine while watching and following your video instructions. Good job man I recommend your channel to all. Thank you
Eric, even though your video is over three years old, it helped me so much! Thanks so much for making this video, very straightforward and helpful. You Rock Eric !
You are the best!! I spent an hour plus fumbling through trying to do this manually, your video got my printer working (with my chromebook) in about 10 minutes. THANK-YOU SOOO MUCH!!!
Thank you thank you so very very much. I have no idea where my router is and my password was super easy once I saw it pop up in the window. You’re awesome.❤
You are a life saver man. There were a few things different in my model HL-L2305w, for example the yes no arrows were the opposite of yours, but I got it connected at the end. Thanks so much for this fantastic video
OMG I moved and I have a new Internet system and I have worked on this printer often on for two months, I found your video, and it finally works. Thank you so much.
thank you so much. just bought a new modem/router and just needed to set up brother with new network and brother wanted to charge me $89 and technician was trying to get into my computer and change driver... etc and was trying to make it like it was complicated to charge me those $89. I said no and found your video and did it in 5 minutes. Thanks a lot
Oh my gosh, that was the most painful experience but I am so so grateful, thank you! I had to do the old version as my brother was an ancient model....
Saved loads of angst and possible sale of my Brother printer with the second set of (yes, a tired finger later) instructions. Just got a new 'router' from T-Mobile and there is no way to do it the first way - the info. from Brother's web site is a bit nebulous but your explanation is solid, esp. the fact that the key they are looking for is the network password. Thanks ever so much!
Hooray, this worked! I got the WPS method to work and it was pretty easy. I had tried both methods on my own two years ago and never figured out what was the right option to use.
Thank you so much for all of your tips. I tried all possible ways to get my printer back online and what finally worked was turning printer and router/modem off at the same time. When they came back on it found the printer right away. I always forget to try the easy thing first. Oh well at least it works now.
Make sure to turn off DEEP SLEEP - ruclips.net/video/2EmIlMPN3mk/видео.html
Yeah. THAT!!!!
😡
I’m glad I saw your video but I’m still pissed by the wasted time.
the video was posted a day ago and this comment was 2 years.. what gives

Totally get the frustration and I'm happy I was able to help 🙏
I agree. They make something easy so difficult. why they do that?
literally in the damn instructions. first page
I just went through the same nonsense. I was worried when I got a CD with the printer in 2022 to begin with!
Jersey Jim, I totally agree.
When I first got the Brother printer years ago it connected to my Apple network effortlessly. Later I upgraded my Internet to ATT Fiber and used their nice router. But after hours and dozens of attempts to connect the Brother I gave up and used USB.
Two years later I see this video, and ten minutes later I was printing wirelessly again.
Thx, how do I type in uppercase letters when doing the painful method? All I get is lower case

that was a wonderful lesson! We were having so much trouble I wasn't sure I wanted to keep this printer - but you saved us!! Bravo
OMG! You are a life saver. My husband got grey hairs and lost hours of his life while trying to get it installed with the Brother information. I did it in seconds with the WPS - and was able to print from my smartphone right away. I am so proud. Although to be fair: you did it! Thank you so much.

I'm in a pinch with crazy due dates and have to face the 'painful' approach. It worked! Thank you, Eric! You rock!
ohhh my goodness! You made it so much simpler than the 4 other videos and hour I spent before I watched this video! Thank you for your knowledge!
You are very welcome 🙂
Thanks so much for this video. Even though I had to go the "painful" route, it was easy. Start to finish took about 3 minutes.

You are very welcome. Happy to help and glad you got it going.
@@thecollegepicker Helpful BUT, I have mixed upper case and lower case in the password. How do I get the upper case? Thanks
Thank you 10x over! I have used this video twice, two different modem/router setups and it works GREAT!😊
OMG! After watching other tutorials with no luck, I finally got my Brother printer set up with a new wifi using the WPS ( easy ) method! thank-you so much!

Thank you for this. I had started with the laboriously painful method suggested by Brother ... and I said there's got to be a better way. And by Gar you provided it! Thanks so much!

Thank you for the great directions! Used the WPS method and that button was the KEY tip! 😀You made it so easy!
Thank you so much for this video! Set up 2 was what I needed. It's crazy how not obvious that was. I appreciate it!
You are welcome. Glad you got it all sorted!

LIFE SAVER! Thank you soooo much. Painful method here as well, but turned out to be not so bad.
The second method worked! Thank you very much 🙏 Brother support chat couldn’t point me in the right direction but you did 👍
Glad it helped =)
Thank you very much. The "painful" method works for me. No pain no gain.

Thank you so much! The first way worked just fine for me. I was doing it all wrong until you walked me through it! Thanks again!
Oh good, you are very welcome 🙂
This is an evergreen tutorial. I’ve used it several times.
Helped me today. Thanks for this video!

Thank you, Eric - you saved me from the depths of informatique-induced despair (I had to use the “hard” method)
You are very welcome. Happy to help.
Appreciate your help - you made it a lot easier for this 80 year old. Guys bless !
Appreciate the tutorial. It was super easy and very quick via the WPS button. Printer was set up in in less than 30 seconds 😊
Happy to help 😃
Thank you so much for this video I had to do it the long way but it worked! 🎉

YOU TRULY ARE THE MAN!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much!
Many thanks from France. This was the only tuto clear and intelligent about the subject.
Finally! I thought I was going to have to buy a new printer because I could not get it to connect to my google nest. This video did it!! Thank You!!!
The ONE video that actually helped! Thanks man!
Exactly what I was looking for. Everyone always assumes you have a WPS button on your router to click. Thank you!!
You are welcome 😊
This little video has been a life saver twice! Thank you for upload it!!
