Brother printer IP address missing from

My printer (Brother HL-2270DW) is attached to my nighthawk router (AC1600, mod R6260) but there is no IP address shown in the attached devices screen (See attached screen shot). The screen does display the MAC address, but not the IP address.

 

The printer was working perfectly with my older Belkin router

 

My other Brother printer, an MFC-J885, connects with no issues.and displays a valid IP address.

 

Without an IP address, I'm unable to install the printer on my windows 10 platform.

 

Any idea(s) on what could be going wrong or possible work arounds to get the printer installed?

Model: R6260|AC1600 Smart WiFi Router Dual Band Gigabit

A good start might be here -> Brother Support & Downloads HL-2270DW ...especially the part with the firmware upgrade!
