Router’s SSID, keep the default setting, Enabled. If you
do not want to broadcast the Router’s SSID, then select
Disabled.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup
There are three methods available. Use the method that
applies to the client device you are configuring.
Wireless > Basic Wireless Settings (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
NOTE: Wi-Fi Protected Setup configures one
client device at a time. Repeat the instructions
for each client device that supports Wi-Fi
Protected Setup.
Method #1
Use this method if your client device has a Wi-Fi Protected
Setup button.
Click or press the 1. Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on
the client device.
Click the
2. Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on this
screen.
After the client device has been configured, click
3.
OK. Then refer back to your client device or its
documentation for further instructions.
Method #2
Use this method if your client device has a Wi-Fi Protected
Setup PIN number.
Enter the PIN number in the 1. field on this screen.
Click 2. Register.
After the client device has been configured, click 3.
OK. Then refer back to your client device or its
documentation for further instructions.
Method #3
Use this method if your client device asks for the Router’s
PIN number.
Enter the PIN number listed on this screen. (It is also 1.
listed on the label on the bottom of the Router.)
After the client device has been configured, click
2.
OK. Then refer back to your client device or its
documentation for further instructions.
The Wi-Fi Protected Setup Status, Network Name (SSID),
Security, Encryption, and Passphrase are displayed at the
bottom of the screen.
NOTE: If you have client devices that do not
support Wi-Fi Protected Setup, note the wireless
settings, and then manually configure those
client devices.
Wireless > Wireless Security
The Wireless Security screen configures the security of
your wireless network. There are six wireless security
mode options supported by the Router: WPA Personal,
WPA Enterprise, WPA2 Personal, WPA2 Enterprise, RADIUS,
and WEP. (WPA stands for Wi-Fi Protected Access, which
is a security standard stronger than WEP encryption. WEP
stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy, while RADIUS stands
for Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service.) These
six are briefly discussed here. For detailed instructions
on configuring wireless security for the Router, refer to
“Chapter 2: Wireless Security Checklist.”
