The network connection between your computer and the wireless router may be unavailable or set up incorrectly. If you replaced your wireless router or access point, or changed its settings, reconnect your Brother machine to the new wireless router or access point.

The main culprits are: Weak Wi-Fi signal – Try moving your printer closer to the Wi-Fi router. Incorrect Wi-Fi network settings – See step 2. Software issues such as out-of-date firmware or drivers – See step 3.
