Protected Setup (WPS)
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) System is designed for easy setup of
security-enabled Wi-Fi networks. It is recommended to have the access
point or wireless router nearby during setup.
For more information on WPS, visit the Wi-Fi Alliance website at
www.wi-.org.
“Push Button Conguration” (PBC) is a virtual button in the utility
that connects you to other WPS-enabled devices. A connection can be
established by clicking on the virtual button, then pushing the physical
button on the access point or wireless router within 120 seconds. Refer
to page 14.
Note: You may also use the physical button on the DWA-171 instead of
using the D-Link software. Refer to the next page.
“Personal Identication Number” (PIN) is a unique number generated
randomly by the wireless adapter’s utility. Entering this number in the
utility of the WPS-enabled wireless router or access point connects
you with the intended wireless network. Refer to page 22 for more
information.
