Configuring Your Wireless Network 25
• Entering a PIN. If you want to use the PIN method, select the PIN radio button. A screen
similar to the one shown below displays.
– Go to your wireless client and, from the client’s WPS utility, obtain the wireless
client’s security PIN, or follow the client’s WPS utility instructions to generate a
security PIN.
– Then, enter this PIN in the Enter Client’s PIN field provided on the router and click
Next. You have 4 minutes to enable WPS on the router using this method.
Using either method, the client wireless device will attempt to detect the WPS signal from the
router and establish a wireless connection in the time allotted.
• If no connection is detected:
– WPS did not establish a secure connection with a wireless device.
– Neither the SSID nor the WPA/WPA2 security settings were configured on the router.
• If a connection is established:
– The router WPS screen displays a message confirming that the wireless client was
successfully added to your wireless network.
– The router generated an SSID, implemented WPA/WPA2 wireless security (including
a PSK security password), and broadcast these settings to the client; the client now
shares the same security settings as the router.
4. Note your SSID and WPA/WPA2 PSK security password (whether previously set or
generated) for your wireless network.

If the router was already configured manually, and either WPS/PSK or
WPA2/PSK security enabled and a PSK security password selected, then
the client now shares these same security settings.
