WPS Push Button Configuration (PBC) is initiated by pressing a button on each WPS-enabled device, and
allowing them to connect automatically. You do not need to enter any information.
The push button configuration function found in the interfaces is available both in AP mode and
Repeater mode. The WPS button, see
, can also be used for PBC configurations in
either AP or Repeater mode.

Note: Your WX3310 has a WPS button located on its panel, as well as a WPS button in its
configuration utility. Both buttons have exactly the same function; you can use one or
the other.
Note: It doesn’t matter which button is pressed first. You must press the second button within
two minutes of pressing the first one.
The WX3310 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 WX3310 securely.
The following figure shows you how to set up wireless network and security by pressing a button on both
WX3310 and wireless client (the Android smartphone in this example).
