Wireless AP Router HNW300APN2 Introduction of WPS Although home Wi-Fi networks have become more and more popular, users still have trouble with the initial set up of network. This obstacle forces users to use the open security and increases the risk of eavesdropping. Therefore, WPS is designed to ease set up of security-enabled Wi-Fi networks and subsequently network management (Wi-Fi Protected Setup Specification 1.0h.pdf, p. 8).
Wireless AP Router HNW300APN2 AP as Proxy At this state, AP is transparent to users. If users want to configure a station or any device that is capable of being an enrollee, they have to enter device’s PIN into an external registrar and choose an appropriate wireless profile. After the PIN is entered, the external registrar will inform AP this event. AP then conveys the encrypted wireless profile between the device and the external registrar.
Wireless AP Router HNW300APN2 Wireless Advanced Settings page Users need to make sure the “Broadcast SSID” file is set to “Enabled”. Otherwise, it might prevent WPS from working properly.
Wireless AP Router HNW300APN2 10.8 Operations of AP - AP being an enrollee In this case, AP will be configured by any registrar either through in-band EAP or UPnP. Here, users do not need to do any action on AP side. They just need AP’s device PIN and enter it into registrar. An example from Vista WCN will be given. 1. From the left-hand Wireless -> WPS menu.
