Connecting Computers Wirelessly over WLAN
6.
Now start the control software of the WLAN device. The
program outputs a PIN for establishing a connection.
7.
Enter this PIN in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
8.
Click “Start WPS”.
The “WLAN” LED on the FRITZ!Box flashes slowly, indicating
that the WPS procedure has begun. Now a secure WLAN con-
nection is being established between the FRITZ!Box and the
WLAN device.
Transferring the WLAN Security Settings Manually
The WLAN security settings for WLAN devices can also be
transferred manually. Manual transfer is unavoidable if a
WLAN device does not support any methods for transferring
the security settings automatically.
For manual transfer the WLAN security settings have to be en-
tered in the WLAN software.
WLAN devices are generally delivered with their own WLAN
software, which is installed in the computer along with the
WLAN device. By now many operating systems have WLAN
software included. Integrated WLAN devices sometimes use
the operating system’s WLAN software.
Installing a WLAN Device
If you need to use a separate WLAN device because you do
not have one integrated, then install the WLAN device in the
computer along with the corresponding WLAN software.
Please take note of the instructions in the documentation of
the device.
