Using a WPS Button to Add a WPS Client

Any wireless computer or wireless adapter that will connect to the modem router wirelessly is a
client. The client must support a WPS button, and must have a WPS configuration utility, such as
the NETGEAR Smart Wizard or Atheros Jumpstart.

To use the modem router WPS button to add a WPS client:

1. Log in to the modem router at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.1 with its default

user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever LAN address and
password you have set up.

2. On the modem router main menu, select Add a WPS Client, and then click Next. The

following screen displays:

By default, the Push Button (recommended) radio button is selected.

3. Either press the modem router dome for a few seconds, which works as a WPS button, or click

the onscreen button.

The modem router tries to communicate with the client for 2 minutes.

4. Go to the client wireless computer, and run a WPS configuration utility. Follow the utility’s

instructions to click a WPS button.

5. Go back to the modem router screen to check for a message.

The modem router WPS screen displays a message confirming that the client was added to the
wireless network. The modem router generates an SSID, and implements WPA/WPA2
wireless security. The modem router will keep these wireless settings unless you change them,
or you clear the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box in the Advanced Wireless
Settings screen.

See

“Restricting Access to Your Modem Router” on page 2-16

6. Note the new SSID and WPA/WPA2 password for the wireless network. You can view these

settings in the Wireless Settings screen. See

“Manually Configuring Your Wireless Settings”

on page 2-4
