WPS Push Button
The WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) feature (sometimes associated with
a physical or on-screen button on most WAPs) allows you to pair
your device and WAP without the need for entering a passcode. This
process is similar to Wi-Fi Direct pairing.
In this case, once the WPS feature is active on your WAP, your device
can then detect it and then immediately pair to it.
Note:
WPS-capable routers appear in the Wi-Fi list of available
devices with the term (
WPS available

To pair your device using WPS:
1. Follow the WPS activation instructions specific to your Wireless
Access Point.
