Hello pbufordjr,
WPS stand for Wi-Fi Protected Set-up . According yo Wikipedia "The goal of the WPS protocol is to simplify the process of configuring security on wireless network, If your 2Wire router is equiped with that function it would be the BIG button on the bottom front of your router Look at this advertisement from 2Wire http://2wire.com/movies/pages/112.swf

SOURCE: Does the linksys-G support WPS or AOSS?

Good question, I have the same router & Brother HL-2280DW and ran the printer setup CD from Windows XP SP3 via temporary USB connection & it seemed to work. The WAN report on the printer itself says OK, however the computer can't seem to find the printer "No devices could be found on the network." I let setup make changes to Windows Firewall, not sure about Microsoft Security Essentials however. This seems like a nice printer/copier at a nice price but this setup is frustrating! PS If it's a security issue I'd like to say thanks to all the hackers for ruining technology for everyone, your junk is responsible for slowing down & complicating computers & technology in the world. Someone please do everyone a favor & start making antibodies that *kill* viruses & spyware & spam and clean & speed things up for a change! All these villians - Where are the cyber super heroes????

How Can I Connect brother printer to wifi?

If your printer has the wifi blue symbol on control panel, press that and notice the list of different choices.
The easiest is "WPS", but this means your router must have a "WPS" switch.
if it does then the rest is easy.
On your printer begin again press WIFI button.
scroll until WPS is available, PRESS "WPS".
instructions should appear to press ,on your router, the WPS button (i hold this button for two seconds then release)
return to your printer, panel after awhile should say connected.
to test find email then on your device select print, the Brother printer name should appear. Select then print.
Later even if your printer goes to sleep it will awaken on the print command , a little slower, and complete print request.

Can a WiFi repeater with WPS connect to a Wireless router without WPS ? I can't seem to get them to connect to each other via WiFi

WPS only works with client Wi-Fi devices that have a WPS button.
Your router does not have it, so it does not work.

What happens when i push the wps button

The WPS button is used to configure a wifi connection with other devices that also have a WPS button. To use it you press the WPS button on the router then on the device you are trying to get access on and then both will be automatically configured.

To adapt N300 Wireless Adapter, I need to press the WPS button on wireless router or gateway. Unable to locate WPS button.

The reason you may wish to press a WPS button is to connect to a WiFi network. The WPS button will be on the router, not on your computer. If no WPS button on the router you will need to enter the WEP/WPA password to connect to the router.
