CHAPTER 8 Tutorials 8.1 Overview This chapter provides tutorials for setting up your ARMOR Z1. • Set Up a Wireless Network Using WPS • Connect to ARMOR Z1 Wireless Network without WPS • Using Guest SSIDs on the ARMOR Z1 8.2 Set Up a Wireless Network Using WPS This section gives you an example of how to set up wireless network using WPS. This example uses the ARMOR Z1 as the AP and NWD210N as the wireless client which connects to a notebook. Note: The wireless client must be a WPS-aware device (for example, a WPS USB adapter or PCI card). There are two WPS methods for creating a secure connection via the web configurator or utility. This tutorial shows you how to do both. • Push Button Configuration (PBC) - create a secure wireless network simply by pressing a button. See Section 8.2.1 on page 49. This is the easier method. • PIN Configuration - create a secure wireless network simply by entering a wireless client's PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the ARMOR Z1's interface. See Section 8.2.2 on page 50. This is the more secure method, since one device can authenticate the other. 8.2.1 Push Button Configuration (PBC) 1 Make sure that your ARMOR Z1 is turned on. Make sure the WIFI button (at the back panel of the ARMOR Z1) is pushed in, and that the device is placed within range of your notebook. 2 Make sure that you have installed the wireless client (this example uses the NWD210N) driver and utility in your notebook. 3 In the wireless client utility, find the WPS settings. Enable WPS and press the WPS button (Start or WPS button) 4 Log into ARMOR Z1's Web Configurator and press the Push Button in the Expert > Wireless > WPS screen. ARMOR Z1 User's Guide 49
