Configure Wireless Security Using WPS on both your
NBG-416N and Wireless Client
This section gives you an example of how to set up wireless network using WPS.
This example uses the NBG-416N as the AP and NWD210N as the wireless client
which connects to a notebook.
Note: The wireless client must be a WPS-aware device (for example, a WPS USB

There are two WPS methods for creating a secure connection. This tutorial shows
you how to do both.
•
Push Button Configuration (PBC)
- create a secure wireless network simply
by pressing a button. See
Section 6.2.1.1 on page 58
.This is the easier method.
•
PIN Configuration
- create a secure wireless network simply by entering a
wireless client's PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the NBG-416N’s
interface. See
Section 6.2.1.2 on page 59
. This is the more secure method,
since one device can authenticate the other.
6.2.1.1
Push Button Configuration (PBC)
1
Make sure that your NBG-416N is turned on and that it is within range of your
computer.
2
Make sure that you have installed the wireless client (this example uses the
NWD210N) driver and utility in your notebook.
3
In the wireless client utility, find the WPS settings. Enable WPS and press the WPS
button (
Start
or
WPS
button)
4
Log into NBG-416N’s Web Configurator and press
Push Button
in the
Network
>
Wireless Client
>
WPS Station
screen.
Note: Your NBG-416N has a WPS button located on its panel, as well as a WPS
button in its configuration utility. Both buttons have exactly the same function;
you can use one or the other.
Note: It doesn’t matter which button is pressed first. You must press the second
button within two minutes of pressing the first one.
The NBG-416N sends the proper configuration settings to the wireless client. This
may take up to two minutes. Then the wireless client is able to communicate with
the NBG-416N securely.

PIN Configuration
When you use the PIN configuration method, you need to use both NBG-416N’s
configuration interface and the client’s utilities.
1
Launch your wireless client’s configuration utility. Go to the WPS settings and
select the PIN method to get a PIN number.
2
Enter the PIN number to the
PIN
field in the
Network
>
Wireless LAN
>
WPS
Station
screen on the NBG-416N.
3
Click the
Start
buttons (or button next to the PIN field) on both the wireless client
utility screen and the NBG-416N’s
WPS Station
screen within two minutes.
The NBG-416N authenticates the wireless client and sends the proper
configuration settings to the wireless client. This may take up to two minutes.
Then the wireless client is able to communicate with the NBG-416N securely.
