2-7 WPS Configuration

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the latest wireless network technology which makes

wireless network setup become very simple. If you have WPS-enabled wireless access

point, and you want to establish a secure connection to it, you don’t have to configure the

wireless access point and setup data encryption by yourself. All you have to do is to go to

the WPS setup page of this wireless card, click a button, and then press a specific button or

enter a set of 8-digit code on the wireless access point you wish to establish a secure

connection - just three simple steps!

For older wireless access points, it’s possible to perform a firmware upgrade to become a

WPS-enabled access point. Since they may not have a hardware button to press for WPS

setup, you can use an alternative WPS setup method - input the pin code. Every

WPS-compatible wireless network card support pin code configuration method; you can

just input the code to wireless access point, and the wireless access point and wireless

network card will do the rest for you.

This wireless network card is compatible with WPS. To use this function, the wireless

access point you wish to connect to must support WPS function too. Now, please follow the

following instructions to establish secure connection between WPS-enabled wireless

access point and your wireless network card.
