Introduction to WPS

2.3.1 Introduction to WPS

WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for easy and secure wireless network set-up and connections.

To use WPS, the device you wish to connect must support WPS and be compatible with WPA security (find out from

your device manual if it supports the WPS feature). WPS can automatically set up a random Network Name (SSID)

and strong WPA wireless security for computers, smartphones, tablets and other consumer electronics devices.

WPS enables you to use push buttons or a PIN code instead of entering a network name (SSID) and WiFi password by

hand.

Options for adding a WPS device:

Push button: You can either physically press the (LED) button on iCON XYfi for 3 seconds or press the 'OK' button

(soft button) in the administration pages. Then press the WPS button on the device you want to connect, and they

will start pairing.

PIN (Personal Identification Number): The PIN to be entered is generated from the device you want to join up

with the iCON XYfi. Enter this PIN and they will start pairing.

Note: You have 2 minutes to complete WPS pairing and only one device can connect during this time
