Push Button Configuration
WPS Push Button Configuration (PBC) is initiated by pressing a button on each
WPS-enabled device, and allowing them to connect automatically. You do not need
to enter any information.
Not every WPS-enabled device has a physical WPS button. Some may have a WPS
PBC button in their configuration utilities instead of or in addition to the physical
button.
Take the following steps to set up WPS using the button.
1
Ensure that the two devices you want to set up are within wireless range of one
another.
2
Look for a WPS button on each device. If the device does not have one, log into its
configuration utility and locate the button (see the device’s User’s Guide for how to
do this - for the ZyXEL Device, see
Section 6.4 on page 93 ).
3
Press the button on one of the devices (it doesn’t matter which).
4
Within two minutes, press the button on the other device. The registrar sends the
network name (SSID) and security key through an secure connection to the
enrollee.
If you need to make sure that WPS worked, check the list of associated wireless
clients in the AP’s configuration utility. If you see the wireless client in the list,
WPS was successful.
PIN Configuration
Each WPS-enabled device has its own PIN (Personal Identification Number). This
may either be static (it cannot be changed) or dynamic (you can change it to a
new random number by clicking on a button in the configuration interface).
When you use the PIN method, you must enter the enrollee’s PIN into the
registrar. Then, when WPS is activated on the enrollee, it presents its PIN to the
registrar. If the PIN matches, the registrar sends the network and security
information to the enrollee, allowing it to join the network.
The advantage of using the PIN method rather than the PBC method is that you
can ensure that the connection is established between the devices you specify, not
just the first two devices to activate WPS in the area. However, you need to log
into the configuration interfaces of both devices.
Take the following steps to set up WPS using the PIN method.
