3-6 WPS Configuration
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the latest wireless network technology which makes wireless
network setup become very simple. If you have WPS-enabled wireless access point, and you
want to establish a secure connection to it, you don’t have to configure the wireless access
point and setup data encryption. All you have to do is go to the WPS setup page of this
wireless card, click a button, and then press a specific button on the wireless access point you
wish to establish a secure connection - just three simple steps!
The WNL-9331 are compatible with WPS. To use this function, the wireless access point you
wish to connect to must support WPS function too. Now, please follow the following
instructions to establish secure connection between WPS-enabled wireless access point and
your wireless network card:
Click ‘WPS’ tab and the following settings will appear:
3-6-1 WPS Setup - PBC (Push-Button Configuration)
1. Set ‘Config Mode’ to ‘Enrollee’, and then push the ‘WPS’ button on your wireless access
point (the button used to activate WPS standby mode may have another name), or use
other way to start WPS standby mode as the instruction given by your wireless access
point’s user manual.
You can also set ‘Config Mode’ to ‘Registrar’. In this mode, this wireless network card
will wait for other WPS-enabled access points to send WPS pairing requests. Please
refer to the instruction given by your wireless access point’s user manual to understand
how to send WPS requests.
