Mobile Broadband 11n Wireless Router MBR1210 User Manual Use Push 'N' Connect (WPS) to Configure Your Wireless Network To use Push 'N' Connect, your wireless computers or devices must support Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS). Compatible equipment usually has the WPS symbol on it. WPS can configure the network name (SSID) and set up WPA/WPA2 wireless security for the router and the wireless computer or device at the same time. WPS considerations: • NETGEAR's Push 'N' Connect feature is based on the WPS standard. All other Wi-Fi-certified and WPS-capable products should be compatible with NETGEAR products that implement Push 'N' Connect. • If your wireless network will include a combination of WPS-capable devices and non-WPS-capable devices, NETGEAR suggests that you set up your wireless network and security settings manually first, and use WPS only for adding WPS-capable devices. WPS Button Any wireless computer or wireless adapter that will connect to the router wirelessly is a client. The client must support a WPS button, and must have a WPS configuration utility, such as the NETGEAR Smart Wizard or Atheros Jumpstart. To use the router WPS button to add a WPS client: 1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to Your Router on page 12. 2. On the router main menu, select Add WPS Client, and then click Next. By default, the Push Button (recommended) radio button is selected. 3. Either click the onscreen button or press the WPS button on the front of the router. WPS button The router tries to communicate with the client (the computer that wants to join the network) for 2 minutes. 4. Go to the client wireless computer, and run a WPS configuration utility. Follow the utility's instructions to click a WPS button. 5. Go back to the router screen to check for a message. Chapter 2. Wireless Network Configuration | 31
