4.2.2 Push Button Configuration (PBC)
1
Make sure that your WAP5805s are turned on and that they are within range of each other.
2
Make sure the WPS (
) buttons of both WAP5805s are on.
3
Press the WPS buttons for more than three seconds. The WPS LEDs blink.
Note: It doesn’t matter which button is pressed first. You must press the second button
within two minutes of pressing the first one.
Note: Your WAP5805 has a WPS button located on its panel, as well as a WPS button in
its Web Configurator. Both buttons have exactly the same function; you can also
log into the Web Configurator and press the
Push Button
in the AP’s
Configuration > Network > Wireless LAN > WPS Station
screen and the
PBC
Start
button in the client’s
Configuration > Network > Wireless LAN > WPS
screen.
The AP sends the proper configuration settings to the wireless client. This may take up to two
minutes. Then the wireless client is able to communicate with the AP securely.
