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 on the router within 60 seconds. The
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 special 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.
Clicking the Add Wireless Device Wizard
button starts the wizard.

them in product packaging, documentation or labeling.
