What is Wireless Protected Setup (WPS)?
WPS is a shortcut method to connect WiFi radios to a secure network. WiFi radios that
support this feature will have a physical button or a virtual button in their settings
interface or both. Press the WPS button on your Access Point and your client radio in
your PC or other device at the same time and for a brief period of time they can see
each other’s signal and automatically transfer security information. Your PC or other
device will then be securely connected and will remember this network in the future
to securely reconnect.
How do I connect wireless using WPS?
The WPS button on your ROS Home Center is located on the rear panel located on the
far right as you view the rear panel. Each wireless device that you want to securely
connect is a little different so find the device’s WPS button before you begin. Press and
release the WPS button on the Home Center. The Home Center front panel display
will turn amber to indicate that WPS is in process. Now press the WPS button on the
wireless device you want to connect. The device must be within wireless range for the
Home Center to connect. The wireless device will indicate when it has a connection.
Why is the WIFI WPS not successful?
Check to make sure the Access Point security mode is not set to WEP. The WEP security
mode does not support WPS. This is done by selecting the Router tab under Settings
and going to the Wireless setup. Check to make sure the device is within radio range of
the Access Point by moving closer to the Access Point and retrying WPS.
What is the Wireless Shared Key?
One way to connect WiFi radios to a secure network is to enter the same a password or
phrase into each radio’s settings. Setup the phrase in your ROS Home Center Access
Point radio first. Then use the same for each new client you want to securely add to
the wireless network. WPS is an alternative way of connecting to a secure wireless
network.
