I am trying to connect my new laser printer to WI-FI

I am trying to connect my Brother laser printer to WI-FI connection.  I am getting a message to disable router privacy separator.  I have looked at my router in depth and cannot locate the privacy separator.   Please help i have been trying for two days

       Not a very detailed description of that printer, or how you're
    "trying to connect" it.

       Probably because there is none, and that error message is misleading.

       Revealing what you did would be more helpful than how long you spent
    doing it.
