Connecting Through WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) provides a fast, simple, and secure way to connect WPS-enabled
devices to your Wi-Fi network. You don’t have to give the name (SSID) and Wi-Fi password of
your Main or Guest network to other users.
The WPS feature is available on certain cameras, printers, smartphones, and laptops. These
devices have either a hardware button or a WPS-related option in the software. Please consult
the user documentation of your device.
WPS is always available for the Main and Guest Wi-Fi networks as long as the Wi-Fi radio is on
(device is not asleep due to sleep (standby) option, or off while device is tethered).
