Brother HL-2270DW sometimes online but most of the time offline

[Gio Bacareza]

I had to re-configure wireless many times following KB articles from Brother support website but problem still happens: sometimes online but most of the time offline

When I print WLAN Report it says Connection OK.

When I print Network Config Report, everything is ok except for <wireless link status> = failed to associate. I'm suspecting this is a clue but I'm no expert.

When I check Printers/Scanners in System Pref for Mac, it says idle with green light.

But as soon as I click on utilities, it turns to yellow and “printer not connected”

What is going on and how do I solve this?

Thanks Ruffin. The problem is not actually setting it up for wireless. I've done that and checking your links and videos, it's what I have done.

The problem is once connected the connections falls out. The printer says it is connected but when you're printing it cannot connect.
