WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) System is a simplified method for securing your wireless network during the
“Initial setup” as well as the “Add New Device” processes. The Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) has certified it across different
products as well as manufactures. The process is just as easy, as pressing a button for the Push-Button Method
or correctly entering the 8-digit code for the Pin-Code Method. The time reduction in setup and ease of use
are quite beneficial, while the highest wireless Security setting of WPA2 is automatically used.
Client PIN Code
A PIN is a unique number that can be used to add the router to an existing network or to create a new network.
You will need to get the PIN number from one of your wireless clients. Please refer to your wireless client’s user
guide for more information.
Step 1:
From your wireless client, write down the PIN and activate/start the WPS process.
Step 2:
Within 2 minutes from the Gateway, select
Client Pin Code
from the drop-down, enter the PIN number
in the box, and then click the
Go
button.
Step 3:
Allow 1-2 minutes for the devices to communicate. Once complete your client will connect to the gateway.
Step 1:
Select
Push Button
from the drop-down and then click the
Go
button to start the WPS process.
