Use WPS to Add a Computer to the Extender's WiFi
Network
WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) lets you connect a computer or WiFi device to the extender's
network without entering the WiFi network passphrase or key. Instead, you use a WPS button
or enter a PIN to connect.
If you use the push button method, the WiFi device that you are trying to connect must
include a physical push button or a software button. If you use the PIN method, you must
know the PIN of the WiFi device that you are trying to connect.
WPS supports WPA and WPA2 WiFi security. If your extender network is open (no WiFi
security is set), connecting with WPS automatically sets WPA + WPA2 WiFi security on the
extender network and generates a random passphrase. You can view this passphrase on the
WiFi Settings screen (for more information, see
For information about using WPS to connect the extender to a WiFi network during setup,

Use WPS with the Push Button Method

To use the Push Button method to connect a WiFi device to the extender's WiFi network, the
WiFi device that you are trying to connect must have a physical push button or a software
push button.
