Setting up the wireless router

The ASUS Wireless Router meets various working scenarios with proper
configurations. You may need to change the wireless router's default settings so

WPS, a utility that enables you to easily set up a secure wireless network.
Notes:
• We recommend that you use wired connection for initial configuration to avoid possible
setup problems due to wireless uncertainty.
• For more details on WPS, refer to the section WPS Wizard in Chapter 5 of this user
