Using The Wps/Reset Button; Wall Mounting - ZyXEL Communications NBG-418N User Manual

WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to
configure security settings manually. Each WPS connection works between two devices. Both
devices must support WPS (check each device's documentation to make sure).
Depending on the devices you have, you can either press a button (recommended) on the device
itself, or in its configuration utility or enter a PIN (a unique Personal Identification Number that
allows one device to authenticate the other) in each of the two devices. When WPS is activated on
a device, it has two minutes to find another device that also has WPS activated. Then, the two
devices connect and set up a secure network by themselves.
The WPS/RESET single button is located at the back panel of the NBG-418N v2.
