Configuring Your Wireless Network 24
3. While the WPS LED is blinking, you have 2 minutes to enable WPS on the device you are
connecting to. The blinking ceases when one of these two conditions occurs:
• WPS has enabled security between the router and the other device.The router has
generated an SSID, implemented WPA/WPA2 wireless security (including a PSK security
password) on the router and has sent this configuration to the wireless client.
• If you do not establish a connection using WPS during this 2-minute interval, your router
security and SSID (wireless network name) will be restored to the default settings (router
security will be set to None).
The WPS LED will stop blinking or turn off, depending on whether the wireless device has
connected successfully.
4. Note the new SSID and WPA/WPA2 password for the wireless network.
To access the Internet from any computer connected to your N600 wireless gigabit router, launch a
browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Firefox.
For more information about setting up your wireless network and configuring your wireless
security settings, see the User Manual. A link to the online User Manual is on your Resource CD.
Testing Basic Wireless Connectivity
Once you have established basic wireless connectivity and enabled security settings appropriate to
your needs, you can test connectivity between devices connected to your router.
To test basic wireless connectivity:
1. Log in to the N600 wireless gigabit router at http://www.routerlogin.net, using the default
user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever LAN address and
password you have set up.
2. Select Wireless Settings from the main menu of the N600 wireless gigabit router.
If you are planning a mixed network of WPS capable devices and non-WPS capable
devices, NETGEAR suggests that you set up your wireless network and security
settings manually first, and use WPS only for adding additional WPS capable
devices.
