Chapter 2

Setting Up Your Wireless Network

This chapter describes how to easily and securely set up your home theater adapter 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 about WPS, go to http://www.wi-fi.org/wifi-protected-setup.

This chapter provides instructions for using the WPS push button. See Chapter 4,

“Wireless Security” for other wireless setup and security options.

This chapter includes the following sections:

• “What If Some of My Devices Do Not Support WPS?”

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

• “Setting Up Two WNHD3004 Units” on page 2-5

What If Some of My Devices Do Not 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 WNHD3004 Home Theater Adapter product. You cannot use the WNHD3004 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 can

be retrieved from the WNHD3004

AP web interface.
