WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard designed to easily setup and
automatically configure secure Wi-Fi networks between two WPS
supported devices. If the client PC supports WPS, the WPS feature can
be a user-friendly and simple process to get your Wi-Fi network up and
running.
Enable WPS:
This enables the WPS feature on the router.
To initiate a WPS session between the router and the prospective client
PC, select either the PBC (Push-Button Configuration) Mode or PIN
Mode and click on the
Start
button. The client PC will have 2 minutes to
connect to the router before the current session times out.
PBC Mode:
This mode allows the WPS session to be configured simply
by pressing the
Start
button on the web and on the client PC. Alternatively,
you can also press the WPS button on the side of router to initiate a
session.
PIN Mode:
This mode uses a PIN code to configure the WPS session
between the router and the client PC. Enter a PIN code (maximum 8
digits consisting of 0-9) or click
Generate
to automatically generate a
random 8 digit number. The PIN entered on the client PC must match this
PIN code for a successful WPS configuration.
