Can't connect my Brother Printer HL-2270DW
Hi, I have seen a few folks ask this same question, but it hasn't worked for me yet. I have a wireless Brother printer HL-2270DW which was previously connected to my old network. I have already reset the printer network so that it is on setup mode now. However, the instructions I have seen is to hit the black "sync" button on my Orbi then hit this little button on the back of my printer (I see the Toner light flashing and looking for the wifi signal, but after 2 minutes, it prints out a sheet that says connection failed (it cannot detect a WLAN access point/router that has WPS or AOSS enabled).
Any tips?
