Use WPS to connect to the WiFi network
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) lets you connect a computer or mobile device to the access
point’s network without entering the WiFi network passphrase or key. Instead, you use
a WPS button or enter a PIN to connect.
If you use the push button method, the computer or device that you are trying to connect
must provide either a physical button or a software button. If you use the PIN method,
you must know the PIN of the computer or device that you are trying to connect.
WPS supports WPA and WPA2 WiFi security. If your WiFi network is open (no WiFi
security is set, which is not the default setting), connecting with WPS automatically sets
WPA + WPA2 WiFi security on the WiFi network and generates a random passphrase.
You can view this passphrase (see Set up or change an open or secure WiFi network
on page 59).
Use WPS with the push button method
For you to use the push button method to connect a WiFi device to the access point’s
WiFi network, the WiFi device that you are trying to connect must provide either a
physical button or a software button. You can use the physical button and software
button to let a WiFi device join only the main WiFi network, not the guest WiFi network.
To join the access point’s main WiFi network using WPS with the push button
method:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
access point network.
2.
Enter http//www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
If you are not connected to the access point network but to the same network as the
access point, enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point. If you do not
know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access point when you cannot
use routerlogin.net on page 27.
A login window displays.
If your browser does not display the login window but displays a security message
and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on
page 30.
3. Enter the access point local device password.
