Connect wireless devices using WPS

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is a feature that makes it easy to connect devices to your
wireless network. If your wireless devices support WPS, you can use this feature to
easily add wireless devices to your network.
Note: You will not be able to use WPS if you set the SSID Broadcast setting to Disabled or
if you are using WEP security.
There are two methods the WPS feature can easily connect your wireless devices to
your network.
 Push Button Configuration (PBC) method
o WPS Software/Virtual Push Button - located in router management page
 PIN (Personal Identification Number) Method - located in router management page
Note: Refer to your wireless device documentation for details on the operation of
WPS.
For connecting additional WPS supported devices, repeat this process for each
additional device.
