Chapter 2

Easy Secure Wireless Setup

This chapter describes how to easily and securely set up your Wireless-N AccessPoint/Bridge

using WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup).

WPS is a standard for easy and secure setup of wireless

home networks, created by the Wi-Fi Alliance and launched in January, 2007. For more

information on WPS, go to http://www.wi-fi.org/wifi-protected-setup.

This chapter provides instructions for using the WPS push button and the WPS PIN

configuration methods. See Chapter 4, “Securing My Wireless” for other wireless setup

and security options.

This chapter includes the following sections:

• “What If Some of My Devices Don’t Support WPS?” on page 2-1

• “Access Point Mode WPS Setup” on page 2-2

• “Setting Up Two WNHDE111 Units” on page 2-5

• “Connecting Other Devices to a WNHDE111” on page 2-7

What If Some of My Devices Don’t Support WPS?

Use this chart to identify the setup method you should use.

Note: Only wireless devices that support the 5GHz 802.11n or the 802.11a standards can connect

to the WNHDE111 5 GHz Wireless-N HD Access Point/Bridge product. You cannot use

the WNHDE111 with 802.11b/g devices.

My Wireless Devices Setup to Use Comment

All my wireless devices

support WPS.

Use the WPS automated setup. This is the easiest and fastest way

to set up very secure wireless.

Some of my devices support

WPS and some do not.

Use the WPS automated setup for

devices that support WPS. Then,

manually configure the other devices

to use the WPA security key.

The default WPA security key is

printed on the back of your

WNHDE111.
