How to set up wireless security using
Wi-Fi Protected Setup
Why would I use Wi-Fi Protected Setup? Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ is a feature
of your router that makes it easy to add devices to your wireless network. If you
have network devices, such as wireless printers, that support Wi-Fi Protected
Setup, then you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup to add the devices.
Wi-Fi Protected Setup activity light
The power indicator light on the back of the router (or on top for the E4200)
indicates the status of Wi-Fi Protected Setup while you are connecting devices.
• When Wi-Fi Protected Setup is connecting a network device, the light
flashes slowly.
• If there is an error, the light flashes quickly for two minutes. Wait until it
stops flashing, then try again.
• When Wi-Fi Protected Setup has finished connecting a device, the light
is continuously lit .
• Wait until the light is continuously lit before starting the next Wi-Fi
Protected Setup session.
Connect network devices using one of the three methods below.
NOTE
Wi-Fi Protected Setup configures one device at a time. Repeat the
instructions for each device that supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup.
Connecting a device using the Wi-Fi Protected Setup
button
Use this method if your device has a Wi-Fi Protected Setup button or prompts
you to press the Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on your router.
To connect a device using the Wi-Fi Protected Setup button:
