WPS default settings.
To manage WPS settings:

2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the modem router user name and password.
The user name is admin.The default password is password. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings.
The Advanced Wireless Settings page displays.
5. Scroll down to the bottom of the page.
The Router’s PIN field displays the fixed PIN that you use to configure the modem router’s WiFi settings from
another platform through WPS.
6. To disable the PIN, clear the Enable Router’s PIN check box.
By default, the Enable Router’s PIN check box is selected and the modem router’s PIN is enabled. For enhanced
security, you can disable the modem router’s PIN by clearing the Enable Router’s PIN check box. However,
when you disable the modem router’s PIN, WPS is not disabled because you can still use the physical WPS
button.
The PIN function might temporarily be disabled automatically if the modem router detects
suspicious attempts to break into the modem router’s WiFi settings by using the router’s PIN
through WPS.
