Use the Network Connection Repair Tool to fix the Brother machine's network settings. It will assign the correct IP address and the Subnet Mask.

- (Windows® XP/XP Professional x64 Edition/Windows Vista®/Windows® 7/Windows® 8)

  You must log on with Administrator rights.

- Make sure the Brother machine is turned on and is connected to the same network as your computer.

1. Do one of the following:

   Option | Description
   Windows® XP | Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > Windows Explorer > My Computer.
   Windows Server® 2003/2008 | Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > Windows Explorer > Computer.
   Windows Vista®/Windows® 7 | Click (Start) > Computer.
   Windows® 8 | Click the (File Explorer) icon on the taskbar, and then click Computer (This PC) in the left navigation bar.
   Windows Server® 2012 / 2012 R2 | Click Computer (This PC) on the Start screen.

2. Double-click on XXX(C:) (where XXX is the name of your local disk drive) > Program Files>Browny02>Brother>BrotherNetTool.exe.
   - For 64-bit OS users, double-click on XXX(C:) (where XXX is the name of your local disk drive) > Program Files (x86)>Browny02>Brother>BrotherNetTool.exe.
   - If the User Account Control screen appears, do one of the following:
     - (Windows Vista®) Click Allow.
     - (Windows® 7/Windows® 8) Click Yes.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
4. Check the diagnosis by printing the Network Configuration Report.

   The Network Connection Repair Tool will start automatically if you select the Enable Connection Repair Tool option in the Status Monitor. Right-click the Status Monitor screen, and then click Other Settings>Enable Connection Repair Tool. This is not recommended when your network administrator has set the IP address to Static, since it will automatically change the IP address.

If the correct IP address and the Subnet Mask are still not assigned even after using the Network Connection Repair Tool, ask your network administrator for this information, or visit the Brother Solutions Center at http://support.brother.com.
