4.6 Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
The Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (
WPS
) is a new and easy way to configure the
encryption for your wireless network clients. In order to use it, you need to have a
router that supports this feature, like the AR670W or AR675W Airlink101 Wireless N
Router. You also need to configure the wireless encryption on the router; you should
find the instructions for configuring it in the router User Manual. If your wireless router
does not support WPS, you will need to set up the wireless security manually and you
can skip this section.
We are using the AWLL6075 Golden N Wireless Mini USB Adapter and the AR675W
Airlink101 Wireless N Green Router to illustrate the following setup instructions.
