Using Push 'N' Connect (WPS) to Configure Your Wireless
Network
If your wireless clients support Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), you can use this feature to configure
the modem router's SSID and security settings and, at the same time, connect the wireless client
securely and easily to the modem router. Look for the
(computers that will connect wirelessly to the modem router are clients). WPS automatically
configures the network name (SSID) and wireless security settings for the modem router (if the
modem router is in its default state) and broadcasts these settings to the wireless client.
Note: NETGEAR's Push 'N' Connect feature is based on the Wi-Fi Protected Setup
(WPS) standard (for more information, see http://www.wi-fi.org). All other Wi-Fi-
certified and WPS-capable products should be compatible with NETGEAR
products that implement Push 'N' Connect.
Some considerations regarding WPS are:
• WPS supports only WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK wireless security. WEP security is not
supported by WPS.
• If your wireless network will include a combination of WPS capable devices and non-WPS
capable devices, NETGEAR suggests that you set up your wireless network and security
settings manually first, and use WPS only for adding additional WPS capable devices. See
"Adding Both WPS and Non-WPS Clients" on page
A WPS client can be added using the Push Button method or the PIN method.
• Using the Push Button. This is the preferred method. See the following section,
WPS Button to Add a WPS
• Entering a PIN. For information about using the PIN method, see
