PIN Configuration - create a secure wireless network simply by entering a wireless client's PIN
(Personal Identification Number) in the NBG-417N’s interface. See Section 6.2.1.2 on page 57.
This is the more secure method, since one device can authenticate the other.
6.2.1.1 Push Button Configuration (PBC)
1 Make sure that your NBG-417N is turned on and that it is within range of your computer.
2 Make sure that you have installed the wireless client (this example uses the NWD210N) driver and
utility in your notebook.
3 In the wireless client utility, find the WPS settings. Enable WPS and press the WPS button (Start or
WPS button)
4 Log into NBG-417N’s Web Configurator and press the Push Button button in the Network >
Wireless Client > WPS Station screen.
Note: Your NBG-417N has a WPS button located on its panel, as well as a WPS button in
its configuration utility. Both buttons have exactly the same function; you can use
one or the other.
Note: It doesn’t matter which button is pressed first. You must press the second button
within two minutes of pressing the first one.
The NBG-417N sends the proper configuration settings to the wireless client. This may take up to
two minutes. Then the wireless client is able to communicate with the NBG-417N securely.
