WPS/WCN 2.0
The router supports
Wi-Fi Protection
, referred to as
WCN 2.0
in Windows Vista®. The following instructions for setting this up
depends on whether you are using Windows Vista® to configure the router or third party software.
When you first set up the router,
Wi-Fi Protection
is disabled and unconfigured. To enjoy the benefits of Wi-Fi protection, the
router must be both enabled and configured. There are three basic methods to accomplish this: use Windows Vista’s built-in
support for WCN 2.0, use software provided by a third party, or manually configure.
If you are running Windows Vista®, log into the router and click the
Enable
box in the
Basic
>
Wireless
section. Use the
Current
PIN
that is displayed on the
Advanced
>
Wi-Fi Protected Setup
section or choose to click the
Generate New PIN
button or
Reset PIN to Default
button.
If you are using third party software to set up
Wi-Fi Protection
, carefully follow the directions. When you are finished, proceed
to the next section to set up the newly-configured router.
