Setup, then you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup to automatically configure wireless
security for your wireless network(s).
Notes:
Wi-Fi Protected Setup can only be used for the default wireless network. (The
residential gateway supports up to four wireless networks. The other three can
be configured using the residential gateway’s web
