Note: Your NBG has a WPS button located on its panel, as well as a WPS button in its
configuration utility. Both buttons have exactly the same function; you can use one
or the other.
Note: It doesn't matter which button is pressed first. You must press the second button
within two minutes of pressing the first one.
The NBG sends the proper configuration settings to the wireless client. This may take up to two
minutes. Then the wireless client is able to communicate with the NBG securely.
The following figure shows you an example to set up wireless network and security by pressing a
button on both NBG and wireless client (the NWD210N in this example).
