Connect wireless devices to your modem router A variety of wireless network devices can connect to your wireless network such as: • Gaming Consoles • Internet enabled TVs • Network media players • Smart Phones • Wireless Laptop computers • Wireless IP cameras Each device may have its own software utility for searching and connecting to available wireless networks, therefore, you must refer to the User's Manual/Guide of your wireless client device to determine how to search and connect to this modem router's wireless network. See the "Appendix" on page 59 for general information on connecting to a wireless network. © Copyright 2015 TRENDnet. All Rights Reserved. TEW-723BRM Connect wireless devices using WPS Advanced Wireless > WPS WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is a feature that makes it easy to connect devices to your wireless network. If your wireless devices support WPS, you can use this feature to easily add wireless devices to your network. Note: You will not be able to use WPS if you set the SSID Broadcast setting to Disabled. There are two methods the WPS feature can easily connect your wireless devices to your network. • Push Button Configuration (PBC) method o RECOMMENDED Hardware Push Button method-with an external button located physically on your modem router and on your client device o WPS Software/Virtual Push Button - located in modem router management page • PIN (Personal Identification Number) Method - located in modem router management page Note: Refer to your wireless device documentation for details on the operation of WPS. Recommended Hardware Push Button (PBC) Method Note: it is recommended that a wireless key (passphrase or password) is created before connecting clients using the PBC method. If no wireless key is defined when connecting via PBC, the modem router will automatically create an encryption key that is 64 characters long. This 64 character key will then have to be used if one has to connect computers to the modem router using the traditional connection method. To add a wireless device to your network, simply push the WPS button on the wireless device you are connecting (consult client device User's Guide for length of time), then push and hold the WPS button located on your modem router for 3 seconds and release it. The WLAN LED on your modem router will flash rapidly indicating that the WPS setup process has been activated. (See "Product Hardware Features" on page 2) For connecting additional WPS supported devices, repeat this process for each additional device. 12
