You can now use the WPS feature to establish a WiFi connection between your notebook and the Zyxel
Device (see
Section 5.3.2 on page 41
). Now use the new security settings to connect to the Internet
through the Zyxel Device using WiFi.
5.3.2 Connecting to the Zyxel Device’s WiFi Network Using WPS
This section shows you how to connect a WiFi device to the Zyxel Device’s WiFi network using WPS. WPS
(Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is a security standard that allows devices to connect to a router securely without
you having to enter a password. There are two methods:
•
Push Button Configuration (PBC)
– Connect to the WiFi network by pressing a button. See
Section
5.3.2.1 on page 41
. This is the simplest method.
•
PIN Configuration
– Connect to the WiFi network by entering a PIN (Personal Identification Number)
from a WiFi-enabled device in the Zyxel Device’s Web Configurator. See
Section 5.3.3 on page 44
. This
is the more secure method, because one device can authenticate the other.
