But I'm curious, you said that the router was more reliable. In addition to the extra layers of complexity, I'll also be vulnerable to the unavailability of the router. I'm trying to simplify an already fraught process. It is in order to cut out the middle-man, which involves a 3rd entity (the router) and two connections instead of one (MFP to router + router to laptop). I'm still trying figure this one out.įinally, you asked why I use Wi-Fi Direct. Unfortunately, I ran into another wrinkle which may prevent me from proceeding even if I did figure out which account it is asking for.

Often, it is unclear what documentation passages pertain to which means of connection.

Making it more difficult is that there is no clear separation between the different means of connecting (Wi-Fi router, Wi-Fi Direct, some kind of 'protected' mode, some kind of proprietary mode, and USB). It's probably in the documentation somewhere, but I am overwhelmed by how the documentation is scattered between many hard copies, PDF files, and online pages. Thank you for letting me know about holding down the copy button. This is my 5th try replying to your comment, so I'll try to recall all that I've previously tried to capture.
