N300 WiFi ADSL2+ Modem Router (N300RM)

Join Your Wireless Network

Choose either the WPS method or the manual method to join your wireless network.

WPS Method

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) lets you connect to a secure WiFi network without typing its
password. Instead, you press a button or enter a PIN. Some older WiFi equipment is not
compatible with WPS. WPS works only with WPA2 or WPA wireless security.

To use the WPS button on the modem router:

1.

Press the

WPS

button on the front of the modem router.

2.

Within 2 minutes, use WPS to join the network using one of the following methods:

If your computer or wireless device has a WPS button, press it.

On your computer or wireless device, with the software you use to join wireless
networks, select the WPS option, and follow the instructions to connect.

To use the WPS method when you are logged in to the modem router:

1.

Select Home > WPS Setup.

2.

Click Next. The following screen lets you select the method for adding the WPS client.

3.

Select either Push Button or PIN Number. With either method, the modem router tries to
communicate with the computer or wireless device, set the wireless security for wireless

device, and allow it to join the wireless network.

4.

When the PIN method screen displays, enter the client security PIN.

When the modem router establishes a WPS connection, the modem router WPS screen
displays a confirmation message.
