4.8 Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
Advanced > Wireless Settings > WPS
WPS is a simplified method to add supporting wireless clients to the network. WPS is
only applicable for APs that employ WPA or WPA2 security. To use WPS, select the
eligible VAPs from the dropdown list of APs that have been configured with this
security and enable WPS status for this AP.
The WPS Current Status section outlines the security, authentication, and encryption
settings of the selected AP. These are consistent with the AP’s profile. There are two
setup options available for :
 Personal Identification Number (PIN): The wireless device that supports WPS
may have an alphanumeric PIN, if so add the PIN in this field. The router will
connect within 60 seconds of clicking the “Configure via PIN” button immediately
below the PIN field. There is no LED indication that a client has connected.
 Push Button Configuration (PBC): for wireless devices that support PBC, press
and hold down on this button and within 2 minutes click the PBC connect button.
The AP will detect the wireless device and establish a link to the client.
