WPS Settings


Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the simplest way to build connection between wireless network clients

and this router. You don’t have to select encryption mode and input a long encryption passphrase every
time when you need to setup a wireless client, you only have to press a button on wireless client and

this wireless router, and the WPS will do the setup for you.

This router supports two types of WPS: Push-Button Configuration (PBC), and PIN code. If you want to
use PBC, you have to switch this wireless router to WPS mode and push a specific button on the wireless

client to start WPS mode. You can push Reset/WPS button of this router, or select “PBC” and click “Start

WPS” button in the WPS setup page to do this. If you want to use PIN code, you have to know the PIN
code of wireless client and switch it to WPS mode, then set the PIN code of the wireless client you wish
to connect to this router in the WPS setup page and click “Start WPS” button to start WPS mode.
