Determine Your Brother hl-l2360dw Wireless Setup Settings
Before you can connect a Brother printer to your wifi network, you’ll need to know all of your wireless settings. The things you will need to know before getting started are:
· Network Name (also known as “SSID” or “ESSID”)
· Network Password (also known as “Network Key”, “Security Key”, or “Encryption Key”)
If you’re unsure how to find this information, the first place you should look is on the side of your router. In most cases, these details will be on a sticker on your router. If not there, check your router’s documentation for how to get to this information via a browser.
Once you have your network information handy, you can begin connecting your Brother printer to your wireless network.

The first option you can try is called a wireless direct setup. Wireless Direct lets you connect your printer to your computer or smartphone directly without a Wi-Fi access point or router. In this case, the Brother printer essentially serves as a Wi-Fi access point. To use this method follow these steps:
For Windows PCs
1. Confirm the Wireless Direct settings of the printer.
2. Connect the printer and computer with a USB cable.
3. Start the Printer Setting Tool on your computer, and click the “Communication Settings” button.
4. Confirm that “Wireless Direct” is selected for “Selected Interface” in the “General” tab.
5. Press and hold the Wi-Fi button on your printer for one second to turn the Wi-Fi function on.
6. Use your computer or mobile device to select the SSID of your printer and enter the password.
7. When the connection is established, the Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi) indicator lights in blue.
For Mac
1. Confirm the Wireless Direct settings of the printer.
2. Connect the printer and computer with a USB cable.
3. Start the Printer Setting Tool on your computer
4. Confirm that “WirelessDirect” is set to “On” in the “Wireless LAN” tab
5. Press and hold the Wi-Fi button on your printer for one second to turn the Wi-Fi function on.
6. Use your computer or mobile device to select the SSID of your printer and enter the password.
7. When the connection is established, the Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi) indicator lights in blue.
Be careful not to hold the Wi-Fi button for too long. If you hold it for five seconds or more, the printer will enter the WPS mode and any connection using Wireless Direct will fail.
You should also know that you can’t connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi while using Wireless Direct. To use the Internet, use a wired connection (when a computer is connected), or connect using Infrastructure Mode.
