There are several ways to add a wireless device to your network. Access to the
wireless network is controlled by a registrar. A registrar only allows devices onto
the wireless network if you have entered the PIN, or pressed a special Wi-Fi
Protected Setup button on the device. The router acts as a registrar for the
network, although other devices may act as a registrar as well.
Using the PIN
A PIN is a unique number that can be used to add the router to an existing
network or to create a new network. The default PIN may be printed on the
bottom of the router. For extra security, a new PIN can be generated. You can
restore the default PIN at any time. Only the Administrator ("admin" account)
can change or reset the PIN.
Select the
PIN
radio button and then click on the
Next
button.
Specify the PIN and then click on the
Connect
button.
The wireless device configuration is now complete.
Using the Push Button
WPS is used for Wi-Fi Protected Setup. By pressing the WPS button on the top
panel of the device, the security settings of the device will automatically
synchronize with other wireless devices on your network that support Wi-Fi
Protected Setup
If the device supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup and has a configuration button, you
can add it to the network by pressing the configuration button on the device and
then the one the router within 60 seconds. The status LED on the router will flash
three times if the device has been successfully added to the network.
