Note: The wireless client must be a WPS-aware device (for example, a WPS USB adapter
or PCMCIA card).
There are two WPS methods to set up the wireless client settings:
Push Button Configuration (PBC) - simply press a button. This is the easier of the two
methods.
PIN Configuration - configure a Personal Identification Number (PIN) on the AMG1312-T
Series. A wireless client must also use the same PIN in order to download the wireless network
settings from the AMG1312-T Series.
Push Button Configuration (PBC)
1 Make sure that your AMG1312-T Series is turned on and your notebook is within the cover range of
the wireless signal.
2 Make sure that you have installed the wireless client driver and utility in your notebook.
3 Make sure wireless LAN is enabled and the wireless security mode is set to WPA-PSK2 or No
Security in the Network Setting > Wireless > General screen.
4 In the wireless client utility, go to the WPS setting page. Enable WPS and press the WPS button
(Start or WPS button).
5 Push and hold the WPS button on the AMG1312-T Series for 1-2 seconds. Alternatively, you may
log into AMG1312-T Series’s web configuration, enable WPS and click the WPS button in the
Network Setting > Wireless > WPS screen.
Note: It doesn’t matter which button (on the client or the AMG1312-T Series) is pressed
first. You must press the second button within two minutes of pressing the first
one.
The AMG1312-T Series sends the proper configuration settings to the wireless client. This may take
up to two minutes. The wireless client is then able to communicate with the AMG1312-T Series
securely.
The following figure shows you an example of how to set up a wireless network and its security by
pressing a button on both AMG1312-T Series and wireless client.
