Wi-Fi Protected Setup

Wi-Fi Protected Setup or WPS makes wireless security configuration

much quicker simpler for wireless stations that support this feature.

NOTE:

The Generate New PIN button is for the Router’s own PIN. This is used when the

Router needs to connect to other WPS enabled access points.

To connect a new wireless station with WPS, click on the

Add Wireless

Device with WPS

button. A new menu appears.

There are two methods available to connect a WPS wireless station, a

manual PIN entry or automatic method.

To use the PIN entry method, type the new station’s PIN number in the

space provided and click on the

Connect

button. The router begins

searching the wireless network for the device. Now begin the WPS

connection procedure with the device attempting connection. The router

will search for 120 seconds. If it fails to find the device, a message

appears explaining that the WPS connection failed.

To use the automatic WPS method, click on the

Virtual Push Button

. The

router begins searching the wireless network for the device. Now begin

the WPS connection procedure with the device attempting connection.

The router will search for 120 seconds. If it fails to find the device, a

message appears explaining that the WPS connection failed.
