Wireless LAN terms and concepts There are two types of Wireless networks: Infrastructure mode and Ad-hoc Infrastructure Mode Infrastructure mode networks have a central Access point/Base station at the heart of the network. The Access point/Base station can also act as a bridge or a gateway to a wired network. When the Brother wireless device is set in this mode, it receives all print jobs via an access point. 2 - 4 NC-2200W WIRELESS SETTING NC9100h_FM6.0

Ad-hoc Mode Ad-hoc networks (also sometimes referred to as peer-to-peer networks) do not have a central Access point. Each Wireless client communicates directly with each other. When the Brother wireless device is set in this mode, it receives all print/scan jobs directly from the computer sending the print data. Channels Wireless networks use Channels. There are up to 14 channels that can be used. However, in many countries the number of channels available are restricted. For more informa

Authentication and Encryption Most Wireless networks use some kind of security settings. These security settings define the authentication (how the device identifies itself to the network) and encryption (how the data is encrypted as it is sent on the network). If you do not correctly specify these options when you are configuring your Brother wireless device, it will not be able to connect to the Wireless network. Therefore care must be taken when configuring these options. Please refer t
