Wi-Fi Protected Setup (Wps) - D-Link DIR-835 User Manual

Section 3 - Configuration
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) System is a simplified method for securing your wireless network during the "Initial setup" as well
as the "Add New Device" processes. The Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) has certified it across different products as well as manufactures.
The process is just as easy, as depressing a button for the Push-Button Method or correctly entering the 8-digit code for the
Pin-Code Method. The time reduction in setup and ease of use are quite beneficial, while the highest wireless Security setting
of WPA2 is automatically used.
