Type admin for the user name and type your password. If you did not yet personalize your password, type password for the password. 4. Click the OK button. The BASIC Home page displays. 5. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings. The Wireless Settings page displays. 6. Scroll down to the WSP Settings section. The Gateway's PIN field displays the PIN that you can enter on a registrar (for example, Windows Connect Now in Microsoft Windows 7) to configure the modem router's WiFi settings through WPS. 7.

The PIN function might temporarily be disabled when the modem router detects suspicious attempts to break into the modem router's WiFi settings through use of the modem router's PIN and WPS. You can manually disable the PIN function by selecting the Disable Router's PIN check box. Manage the Advanced WiFi Network Settings 161
