Planet Technology WNRT-620 Network Router User Manual


 
5.4.5 WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the simplest way to build connection between wireless network clients
and this wireless router. You don’t have to select encryption mode and input a long encryption pass
phrase every time when you need to setup a wireless client, you only have to press a button on wireless
client and this wireless router, and the WPS will do the rest for you.
This wireless router supports two types of WPS: Push-Button Configuration (PBC), and PIN code. If you
want to use PBC, you have to push a specific button on the wireless client to start WPS mode, and switch
this wireless router to WPS mode too. You can push RET/WPS button of this wireless router, or click
‘Start PBC’ button in the web configuration interface to do this; if you want to use PIN code, you have to
know the PIN code of wireless client and switch it to WPS mode, then provide the PIN code of the
wireless client you wish to connect to this wireless router.
