AC750 WiFi Range Extender
WPS supports WPA and WPA2 WiFi security. If your extender network is open (no WiFi
security is set), connecting with WPS automatically sets WPA + WPA2 WiFi security on the
extender network and generates a random passphrase. You can view this passphrase on the
WiFi Settings page (for more information, see View WiFi Settings on page 21).
For information about using WPS to connect the extender to a WiFi network during setup,
see Use the Extender in Access Point Mode on page 15.
