D-Link DIR-6±8 User Manual

Section ² - Configuration

This Wizard helps you add wireless devices to the wireless

network.

The wizard will either display the wireless network settings

to guide you through manual configuration, prompt you to

enter the PIN for the device, or ask you to press the configuration button on the device. 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 on 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.

There are several ways to add a wireless device to your network. A “registrar” controls access to the wireless network. 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.
