Add a Client Using a PIN
Any computer or wireless device that connect wirelessly to the gateway is a client. After a
device is added as a client, it can automatically connect to the gateway.
To add a wireless device to your gateway using a PIN:
1.
Make sure that you know how WPS works on your computer or wireless device.
If it works with WPS, it has a WPS utility. To determine the PIN for your wireless computer
or device, use this utility.
2.
Log in to the gateway.
