3.2.2 Using WPS
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) lets you connect a wireless device to the Extender’s network
without entering the wireless network passphrase or key. Instead, you use a WPS button or enter
a PIN to connect. WPS supports WPA and WPA2 wireless security. If your Extender network is
open (no wireless security is set), then connecting with WPS automatically sets WPA2 + WPA
wireless security on the Extender network.
To use the Extender WPS button to connect:
1.
Locate the WPS button on the side of the Extender.
2. Press the Extender’s WPS button for 2 minutes, the Extender attempts to add a wireless
client (a wireless device) to its wireless network.
3. Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your wireless device, or follow the WPS
instructions that came with your wireless device. Your wireless device is now connected to
the Extender.
