Connect a Wireless Client to your Router

The easiest and most secure way to connect your wireless devices to the router is WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). Most wireless

devices such as wireless adapters, media players, Blu-ray DVD players, wireless printers, and cameras will have a WPS button

(or a software utility with WPS) that you can press to connect to the DIR-842 router. Please refer to your user manual for the

wireless device you want to connect to make sure you understand how to enable WPS. Once you know, follow the steps below:

Step 1 - Press the WPS button on the DIR-842 for about 1 second. The Internet LED on the front will start to blink.

Note: If you press and hold the WPS button for 8 seconds or longer, the DIR-842 will reset to factory defaults.

Step 2 - Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your wireless client (or launch the software utility and start the WPS

process).

Step 3 - Allow up to 1 minute to configure. Once the Internet light stops blinking, you will be connected and your wireless

connection will be secure with WPA2.
