The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Advanced Wireless Settings.
The Advanced Wireless Settings page displays.
5. Scroll down to the WPS Settings section in the lower part of the page.
The Router’s PIN field displays the fixed PIN that you use to configure the router’s WiFi settings from
another platform through WPS.
6. To disable the PIN, clear the Enable Router’s PIN check box.
By default, the Enable Router’s PIN check box is selected and the router’s PIN is enabled. For enhanced
security, you can disable the router’s PIN by clearing the Enable Router’s PIN check box. However,
when you disable the router’s PIN, WPS is not disabled because you can still use the physical WPS
button.
The PIN function might temporarily be disabled automatically if the router detects
suspicious attempts to break into the router’s WiFi settings by using the router’s PIN
through WPS.You can configure the number of times a failed PIN connection is
allowed before the PIN function is disabled.
Note
7. To allow the WiFi settings to be changed automatically when you use WPS, clear one or both of the
Keep Existing Wireless Settings check boxes.
By default, both Keep Existing Wireless Settings check boxes are selected.We recommend that you
leave these check boxes selected. If you clear a check box, the next time a new WiFi client uses WPS
to connect to the router, the router’s associated WiFi settings change to an automatically generated
random SSID and passphrase.
Clear a Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box only if you want to allow the WPS process to
change the associated SSID and passphrase for WiFi access.
WARNING:
If you clear a Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box and use WPS to add
a computer or mobile device to the router’s WiFi network, the associated SSID
and passphrase are automatically generated and other WiFi devices that are
already connected to the router’s WiFi network might be disconnected.
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Manage Advanced WiFi Settings
For most WiFi networks, the advanced WiFi settings work fine and you do not need to change the settings.
If you want to change the WiFi settings of the router’s main network, use a wired connection
to avoid being disconnected when the new WiFi settings take effect.
