Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Method

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard that lets you easily join a secure wireless network
with WPA or WPA2 wireless security. The wireless modem router automatically sets security
for each computer or device that uses WPS to join the wireless network. To use WPS, make
sure that your wireless devices are Wi-Fi certified and support WPS. NETGEAR products
that use WPS call it Push 'N' Connect.
Note: If the SSID changes each time you add a WPS client, the Keep
Existing Wireless Settings check box on the Advanced Wireless
Settings screen has been cleared. See
page 86 for more information about this setting.
