one device to authenticate the other) in each of the two devices. When WPS is activated on a
device, it has two minutes to find another device that also has WPS activated. Then, the two
devices connect and set up a secure network by themselves.
5.5.5.1 Push Button Configuration
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.
Not every WPS-enabled device has a physical WPS button. Some may have a WPS PBC
button in their configuration utilities instead of or in addition to the physical button. Take the
following steps to set up WPS using the button.
Step 1
Ensure that the two devices you want to set up are within wireless range of one another.
Step 2
Look for a WPS button on each device. If the device does not have one, log into its
configuration utility and locate the button (see the device's User's Guide for how to do this -
for the LTE Device, see
).
Step 3
Press the button on one of the devices (it doesn't matter which). For the LTE Device you must
press the WPS button for more than ten seconds.
Step 4
Within two minutes, press the button on the other device. The registrar sends the network
name (SSID) and security key through a secure connection to the enrollee.
If you need to make sure that WPS worked, check the list of associated wireless clients in the
AP's configuration utility. If you see the wireless client in the list, WPS was successful.

5.5.5.2 PIN Configuration
The PIN method ensures that the connection is established between the devices you specify,
not just the first two devices to activate WPS in range of each other. You need to log into the
configuration interfaces of both devices to use the PIN method.
When you use the PIN method, you must enter the PIN the wireless client into the LTE
Device. Then, when WPS is activated on the first device, it presents its PIN to the second
device. If the PIN matches, one device sends the network and security information to the
other, allowing it to join the network.
Take the following steps to set up a WPS connection between an access point or wireless
router (referred to here as the AP) and a client device using the PIN method.
Step 1
Ensure WPS is enabled on both devices.
Step 2
Access the WPS section of the AP's configuration interface. See the device's User's Guide for
how to do this.
Step 3
Look for the client's WPS PIN; it will be displayed either on the device, or in the WPS section
of the client's configuration interface.
Step 4
Enter the client's PIN in the AP's configuration interface.
Step 5
Start WPS on both devices within two minutes.
Step 6
Use the configuration utility to activate WPS, not the push-button on the device itself.
