Questions About WPS
Find answers to common questions about WPS.
What is WPS?
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) provides a fast, simple, and secure way to connect WPS-enabled
devices to your Wi-Fi network. You don’t have to give the name (SSID) and Wi-Fi password of
your network to other users.
The WPS feature is available on certain cameras, printers, smartphones, and laptops. These
devices have either a hardware button or a WPS-related option in the software. Please consult
the user documentation of your device.

WPS button or the WPS software option. Some laptops support two methods — a WPS button
or software option, and Wi-Fi network manager software where you can connect by entering the
Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password, as described in
