Chapter 7 Wireless LAN
7.8.8.1 Push Button Configuration
WPS Push Button Configuration (PBC) is initiated by pressing a button on each
WPS-enabled device, and allowing them to connect automatically. You do not need
to enter any information.
Not every WPS-enabled device has a physical WPS button. Some may have a WPS
PBC button in their configuration utilities instead of or in addition to the physical
button.
Take the following steps to set up WPS using the button.
Ensure that the two devices you want to set up are within wireless range of one
1
another.
Look for a WPS button on each device. If the device does not have one, log into its
2
configuration utility and locate the button (see the device's User's Guide for how to
do this - for the ZyXEL Device, see
Press the button on one of the devices (it doesn't matter which). For the ZyXEL
3
Device, the wireless LAN is activated by default, so the LED lights green. If not,
press the WIFI button for 5 to 6 seconds and release it when the LED turns green.
The Wireless LAN is on. Press the WIFI button again for 1 to 2 seconds and release
it when the LED is blinking orange. Press the WiFi or WPS button on another WPS-
enabled device within range of the ZyXEL Device.
Within two minutes, press the button on the other device. The WiFi LED blinks
4
orange while the registrar sends the network name (SSID) and security key
through an secure connection to the enrollee. When the WPS connection has been
configured successfully, the LED will become green.
If you need to make sure that WPS worked, check the list of associated wireless
clients in the AP's configuration utility. If you see the wireless client in the list,
WPS was successful.

7.8.8.2 PIN Configuration

Each WPS-enabled device has its own PIN (Personal Identification Number). This
may either be static (it cannot be changed) or dynamic (in some devices you can
generate a new PIN by clicking on a button in the configuration interface).
Use the PIN method instead of the push-button configuration (PBC) method if you
want to ensure that the connection is established between the devices you specify,
not just the first two devices to activate WPS in range of each other. However, you
need to log into the configuration interfaces of both devices to use the PIN
method.
