WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
WPS button allows you to activate Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS). When you press the reset button and hold it down
for 2-3 seconds, it automatically detects and connects wireless clients into the wireless network by broadcasting
the wireless network settings from your Access Point to you wireless device/s. Note also this LED shows your wifi
status so when it is blinking, it is the status of your receive/transmitting on your wireless network. Note that WPS
must be active by going in basic mode then wifi. It is disabled by default for security reason
Note not to hold the reset button down too long as it will do a factory default on the router so just hold down for 2-3
seconds max.
To setup WPS:
Press the reset button and hold it down for 2-3 seconds (back of the unit), If you hold it longer than 5 seconds, it
will reset the router.
Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on the Wireless Client.
Note that you must select WPA2-PSK Security Type for this to be active. Note also that the WPS PIN is set to
dynamic and will change everything it is accessed in the router.
WPS is not recommended to be used as it opens a major security issue as that it is why it is disabled by default.
Note:
WPS can only be used with wireless client devices that have a compatible WPS component.
