WPS Button Connection
The WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button is a standard for easy
and secure wireless network set up and connections. To use
WPS, the connecting device must support WPS and be
compatible with Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) security. WPS can
automatically set up a random network name and WPA wireless
security for wireless Wi-Fi phones, routers, access points,
computers, adapters, and other electronic devices.
WPS allows you to push buttons instead of entering a network
name and wireless security PIN.
