To access the Internet from any computer connected to your modem router, launch a browser such
as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. You should see the modem router's Internet
LED blink, indicating communication to the ISP.
Note: If no WPS-capable client devices are located during the 2-minute timeframe, the
SSID will not be changed, and no security will be implemented on the modem
router.

Using PIN Entry to Add a WPS Client

Any wireless computer or wireless adapter that will connect to the modem router wirelessly is a
client. The client must support a WPS PIN, and must have a WPS configuration utility, such as the
NETGEAR Smart Wizard or Atheros Jumpstart.
The first time you add a WPS client, make sure that the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check
box on the WPS Settings screen is cleared. This is the default setting for the modem router, and
allows it to generate the SSID and WPA/WPA2 security settings when it implements WPS. After
WPS is implemented, the modem router automatically selects this check box so that your SSID
and wireless security settings remain the same if other WPS-enabled devices are added later.
To use a PIN to add a WPS client:
1. Log in to the modem router at its default LAN address of http://10.0.0.2 with its default user
name of admin and default password of admin, or using whatever LAN address and password
you have set up.
