Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
Using Wi-Fi Protected Setup
WPS uses WPA2 (described on page 47) for encryption. It does not
provide additional security, but rather, standardizes the method for
securing your wireless network . You may use either the Push Button
Configuration (PBC) method or PIN method to allow a device access to
your wireless network . Conceptually, the two methods work as follows:
PBC: Push and hold the WPS button located on the back of your Router
for three seconds . Then, initiate the WPS procedure on the client
device within two minutes . Refer to your client's documentation on this
procedure . Pushing the PBC button will automatically enable WPS . The
client has now been securely added to your wireless network .
PIN: The client device has a PIN number (either four or eight digits) that
is associated with WPS . Enable WPS through the screen illustrated on
the next page. Enter the client's PIN into the Router's internal registrar
(accessed through this screen) . The client will be automatically enrolled
into your wireless network within two minutes .
