The Wireless Settings page displays. The lower part of the page is called the
Advanced Wireless Settings page. (As you scroll down on the page, the page name
changes.)
5. Do one of the following:
•
2.4 GHz radio. To change the settings for the 2.4 GHz radio, scroll down to the
Advanced Wireless Settings (2.4 GHz/b/g/n/ax) section.
•
5 GHz radio. To change the settings for the 5 GHz radio, scroll down to the
Advanced Wireless Settings (5 GHz 802.11a/n/ac/ax) section.
Note: If the smart connect feature is enabled (which it is by default), the page
presents a single option in the Advanced Wireless Settings (2.4 GHz/b/g/n/ax & 5
GHz 802.11a/n/ac/ax) section. In that situation, enabling or disabling applies to both
radios simultaneously. If the smart connect feature is disabled, you can enable or
disable each radio individually.
6. Turn off or turn on the radio:
•
Turn off the radio. Clear the Enable Wireless Router Radio check box.
•
Turn on the radio. Select the Enable Wireless Router Radio check box.
7. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
If you turn off both radios, the WiFi LED turns off.
Use WPS to connect to the WiFi network
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) lets you connect a computer or mobile device to the AP’s
Wireless 1 network without entering the WiFi network passphrase or key. Instead, you
use a WPS button or enter a PIN to connect.
If you use the push button method, the computer or device that you are trying to connect
must provide either a physical button or a software button. If you use the PIN method,
you must know the PIN of the computer or device that you are trying to connect.
WPS supports WPA and WPA2 WiFi security. If your WiFi network is open (no WiFi
security is set, which is not the default setting), connecting with WPS automatically sets
WPA + WPA2 WiFi security on the WiFi network and generates a random passphrase.
You can view this passphrase (see Set up or change an open or secure WiFi network
on page 64).
