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.
Using the PIN
A PIN is a unique number that can be used to add the router to an existing
network or to create a new network. The default PIN may be printed on the
bottom of the router. For extra security, a new PIN can be generated. You can
restore the default PIN at any time. Only the Administrator ("admin" account) can
change or reset the PIN.
