4.3 Setting Up a Wireless Connection by the WPS

Button

The HG256s supports the WPS function. If your network adapter also supports the WPS

function, you can use the WPS function to set up a wireless connection between your PC

and the HG256s quickly. To set up a wireless connection, do as follows:

Step 1

Set the WLAN parameters of HG256s, and then set the Security Mode to WPA-PSK,

WPA2-PSK or WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK as prompted. For details, see section 6.2.3

"Using Secure Encryption".

The WPS function can be used only when the security mode of the WLAN is set to WPA-PSK,

WPA2-PSK, or WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK.

Step 2

Press the WPS button of the HG256s to enable the HG256s to enter the WPS negotiation

state.

The WLAN indicator of the HG256s blinks. If the WLAN indicator does not blink, it

indicates that the WPS function cannot be enabled. For the solutions to other WPS

problems, see chapter 8 "FAQs".

Step 3

Enable the WPS negotiation function of the wireless network adapter on your PC within

two minutes, and then wait for a moment (typically 10s).

The WLAN indicator of the HG256s becomes on from the blinking state, indicating that

the HG256s is connected to your PC through the WLAN.
