Use WPS to Join the Extender's Wireless Network
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) lets you connect a computer or wireless device to the
extender's network without entering the wireless network passphrase or key. Instead, you
use a WPS button or enter a PIN to connect. WPS supports WPA and WPA2 wireless
security.
Note:
You cannot use the Push 'N' Connect WPS button to connect the
extender to your wireless network. The WPS button on the extender
can be used only to connect a computer to the extender.
The High Power WiFi Extender EX6200 Installation Guide explains how to use WPS during
installation.
To join the extender's network using WPS:
1.
Select Add WPS Client. The following screen displays:
2.
Select a radio button.
•
Push Button (recommended). Either click the
button on the front of the extender.
•
PIN Number. Select the radio button, and a PIN displays.
The extender tries to find the wireless client (the computer) that is attempting to join the
network. If you are using a WPS button, it tries for 2 minutes. If you are using a PIN, it
tries for 4 minutes.
3.
Go to your wireless computer. Use its WPS software to try to connect to the extender.
