Connecting to an AP with the WPS PIN method - create a secure wireless network simply by
entering the WRE2205's PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the AP’s interface. See Section
5.3.2 on page 31. This is the more secure method, since one device can authenticate the other.
Selecting an AP from an Automatically Detected List - create a secure wireless network
simply by selecting an AP from a list of detected APs. See Section 5.3.3 on page 32.This is the
easier method.
Selecting an AP by Manually Entering Security Information - create a secure wireless
network by manually entering the AP’s wireless security settings in the WRE2205’s interface. See
Section 5.3.4 on page 34. This is useful when the AP is hidden.
5.3.1 Connecting to an AP with the WPS PBC Method
This section gives you an example of how to connect to an AP using WPS PBC. This example uses
the WRE2205 as the enrollee and an AP as the registrar.
1 Make sure that your WRE2205 is turned on and that it is within range of the AP.
2 Make sure that you have installed the AP and have access to the configuration interface of the AP or
the AP’s WPS button.
3 Log into WRE2205’s Web Configurator and navigate to the Network > Wireless LAN > WPS
Station screen. Select Enrollee in Config Mode and press Start PBC.
4 In the configuration interface of the AP, find the WPS settings. Enable WPS and press the WPS
button (Start or WPS button)
Note: Your WRE2205 has a WPS button located on its panel, as well as a WPS button in
its configuration utility. Both buttons have exactly the same function; you can use
one or the other.
Note: It doesn’t matter whether you press the button on the WRE2205 or the AP first.
WPS times out after two minutes of pressing a button. Press the button on the
second device within about a minute of the first, then wait two minutes for the WPS
configuration to complete.
The AP sends the proper configuration settings to the WRE2205. Then the WRE2205 is able to
communicate with the AP securely.
The following figure shows an example of how to set up wireless network and security by pressing a
button on both WRE2205 and AP.
