Wi-Fi Protected Setup
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 process is just as easy as
pressing a button for the Push-Button Method or correctly entering
an 8-digit code.
Enable/disable the Wi-Fi Protected Setup feature.

Create a random number that is a valid PIN. This
becomes the router’s PIN. You can then copy this
PIN to the user interface of the wireless client.
Select whether the router is the
Enrollee
or the
Registrar

try to connect to other devices. If it is set to registrar, other devices will try to connect to the router.

trying to connect in order to establish a WPS pairing.
Select whether the WPS authentication will use Pin code or push button method.
