Section 4 - Connecting a Wireless Client
WPS/WCN 2.0
The DIR-506L supports Wi-Fi protection, referred to as WCN 2.0 in Windows Vista®. The following instructions for setting this
up depends on whether you are using Windows Vista® to configure the router or third party software.
When you first set up the router, Wi-Fi protection is disabled and unconfigured. To enjoy the benefits of Wi-Fi protection, the
router must be both enabled and configured. There are three basic methods to accomplish this: use Windows Vista’s built-in
support for WCN 2.0, use software provided by a third party, or manually configure.
If you are running Windows Vista®, log into the router and click the
Enable
box in the
Basic
>
Wireless
section. Use the Current
PIN that is displayed on the
Advanced
>
Wi-Fi Protected Setup
section or choose to click the
Generate New PIN
button or
Reset PIN to Default
button.
If you are using third party software to set up Wi-Fi Protection, carefully follow the directions. When you are finished, proceed
to the next section to set up the newly-configured router.
