Wireless Connection: Using the WPS Button (KX-NTV150 only)
1.
Make sure your AP (Access Point) and Operating System support WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) functions.
WPS enables easy setup with compatible APs.
2.
Disconnect your LAN cable, and connect the power cord.
3.
Wait for 1 minute for the KX-NTV150 to boot up. Press the WPS button for more than 2 seconds. The front
panel LED should blink red.
4.
Press and hold down the WPS button on your AP (some routers/APs will have a virtual button in their
management software instead). Refer to your AP's documentation for details on using its WPS functions.

When WPS configuration is done, wireless connectivity will be established and the security encryption, such
as WEP or WPA-PSK, will be synchronized with the AP. Use the IW utility to find the KX-NTV150. As for the
IP setting, the KX-NTV150 use of DHCP or static IP is determined by your configuration on the KX-NTV150
via the web-based configuration of firmware. The KX-NTV150 default setting is DHCP.
Note
•
It is strongly recommended to apply WPA2
®
/AES encryption for access security.
•
WPS may not work if your AP is configured with a "hidden" SSID.
•
If no WPS-enabled AP is detected, and if the KX-NTV150 still cannot detect an AP after 2 minutes, the
wireless setup will be cancelled. If WPS configuration should fail, wireless configuration will be cleared.
You can then re-try the process above or use a wired connection to establish a web console and
manually configure the wireless settings.
•
If a camera is assigned with a fixed IP outside the AP's network segment, wireless setup will fail.
•
A wired connection always has a higher priority, and hence wireless setup will not take effect when the
RJ45 LAN port is connected. If you want to switch from wired connection to wireless connection,
disconnect the Ethernet cable and reboot the KX-NTV150.
