This type of network does not have a central access point. Each wireless client communicates directly with 
each other. When the Brother wireless machine (your machine) is part of this network, it receives all print jobs 
directly from the computer sending the print data.

This type of network has a central access point at the heart of the network. The access point is connected to 
a computer which is not wireless capable with the Ethernet cable. When the Brother wireless machine (your 
machine) is a part of this network, it receives all print jobs via an access point.
