4.9.2 Using WPS
This section gives you an example of how to set up a wireless network using WPS. This example uses the
WX3401-B0 as the AP and a WPS-enabled Android smartphone as the wireless client.
There are two WPS methods for creating a secure connection. This tutorial shows you how to do both.
•
Push Button Configuration (PBC)
- create a secure wireless network simply by pressing a button. This is
the easier method.
•
PIN Configuration
- create a secure wireless network simply by entering a wireless client's PIN (Personal
Identification Number) in the WX3401-B0’s interface. This is the more secure method, since one device
can authenticate the other.
Note: When using WPS in the Web Configurator, and depending on your
Band
selection
(
2.4GHz
or
5GHz
), the secure connection will apply for the selected
Band
only.
