WPS
Wi
‐
Fi
Protected
Setup
is
a
simple,
alternative
way
to
establish
connections
between
WPS
compatible
devices.
Some
wireless
network
devices
feature
a
built
‐
in
WPS
button,
which
activates
WPS
on
that
device.
When
WPS
is
activated
in
the
correct
manner
and
at
the
correct
time
for
two
compatible
devices,
they
will
automatically
connect
to
each
other.
WPS
can
also
be
activated
via
a
device’s
web
user
interface,
which
has
the
same
effect
as
physically
pushing
the
WPS
button
(known
as
PBC
or
“push
button
configuration”).
PIN
code
WPS
is
an
additional
variation
of
WPS
which
can
be
activated
from
a
device’s
web
user
interface,
and
includes
the
use
of
a
PIN
code
between
the
two
devices
for
identification
and
verification.
The
“WPS”
page

information
about
Wireless
Protected

including
a
