WPS Wizard for WiFi Connections

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) lets you connect to a secure WiFi network without typing its

password. Instead, press a button or enter a PIN. NETGEAR calls WPS Push 'N' Connect.

The WPS Wizard helps you add a wireless computer or device to your WiFi network. On the

computer or wireless device, either press its WPS button or locate its WPS PIN.
