WPS
What is WPS?
WPS is short for a Wi-Fi Protected Setup, which allows you to quickly ans securely connect to a wireless network. Without WPS, you must manually create a wireless network name (SSID), and then manually enter a security key on both the router and wireless device to secure your wireless network. With WPS, the router automatically configures a wireless network with a network name (SSID) and strong WPA data encryption and authentication.You can use WPS to connect a wireless device to your router in two ways:
- PIN (Personal Identification Number). You provide a PIN (usually found on a device or in a web interface) to the AP or client WPS device.
- Push Button. You push a button, either an actual or a virtual button, on both WPS devices .
