router: using the physical push button or using the software button in the Add WPS Client screen.
Using the Physical Push Button
1. Press the WPS push button on the JWNR2000 router for over 5 seconds.
The WPS LED begins to blink in a regular pattern. While the light is blinking, you have 2
minutes to enable WPS on the client that you are trying to connect to the router.
2. On the wireless client, follow its specific networking instructions to enable WPS, to allow it to
connect to the router.
The JWNR2000 router's WPS LED ceases blinking and remains on when one of these
conditions occurs:
