Wi-Fi Protected Setup
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) System is a simplified method for securing your wireless network during the “Initial setup” as well as
the “Add New Device” processes. The Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) has certified it across different products as well as manufactures. The
process is just as easy, as depressing a button for the Push-Button Method or correctly entering the 8-digit code for the Pin-Code
Method. The time reduction in setup and ease of use are quite beneficial, while the highest wireless Security setting of WPA is
automatically used.
