4. Go to the client wireless computer, and run a WPS configuration utility. Follow the utility’s
instructions to push or click a WPS button.
5. Go back to the modem router screen to check for a message.
• While the modem router attempts to connect to a WPS-capable device, the Push 'N'
Connect LED on the front blinks green. When the modem router has established a WPS
connection, the LED is solid green.
• If a connection is established, the modem router WPS screen displays a message
confirming that the wireless client was successfully added to the wireless network. (The
modem router has generated an SSID, implemented WPA/WPA2 wireless security
[including a PSK security password] on the modem router, and has sent this configuration
to the wireless client.)
6. Note the new SSID and WPA/WPA2 password for the wireless network.
To access the Internet from any computer connected to your modem router, launch a browser such
as Microsoft Internet Explorer. You should see the modem router’s Internet LED blink, indicating
communication to the ISP.
Using PIN Entry to Add a WPS Client
Any wireless computer or wireless adapter that will connect to the modem router wirelessly is a
client. The client must support a WPS PIN, and must have a WPS configuration utility, such as the
NETGEAR Smart Wizard or Atheros Jumpstart.
The first time you add a WPS client, make sure that the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check
box on the WPS Settings screen is cleared. This is the default setting for the modem router, and
allows it to generate the SSID and WPA/WPA2 security settings when it implements WPS. After
WPS is implemented, the modem router automatically selects this check box so that your SSID
and wireless security settings remain the same if other WPS-enabled devices are added later.
To use a PIN to add a WPS client:
1. Log in to the modem router at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.1 with its default
user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever LAN address and
password you have set up.
Note: If no WPS-capable client devices are located during the 2-minute timeframe,
security will not be implemented on the modem router.
