Use the Wireless (Wi-Fi) sub-menu configure the wireless settings for the
MBR1000. NOTE: changes made in this section may also need to be

network. Add Wireless Devices with WPS (WI-FI Protected Setup) Wizard

Add Wireless Device with WPS.

This Wizard helps you add wireless

devices to the wireless network using the Wi-Fi Protected Setup protocol.

The wizard will prompt you to enter the PIN for the device, or ask you to
press the Configuration

button on the device. If the device supports Wi-Fi

Protected Setup and has a configuration button, you can add it to the
network by pressing the Configuration

button on the device and then the

WPS

button on the router within 60 seconds. The WPS

status LED on the

router will flash three times if the device has been successfully added to the
network.

There are several ways to add a wireless device to your network. Access to
the wireless network is controlled by a “registrar.” A registrar only allows
devices onto the wireless network if you have entered the PIN, or pressed a
Wi-Fi Protected Setup

button on the device. The router acts as a registrar

for the network, although other devices may act as a registrar as well.
