VI-4. Mac: WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup is a simple, alternative way to establish connections
between WPS compatible devices. Most of the wireless router and access
point feature a built-in WPS button, which activates WPS on that device.
When WPS is activated in the correct manner and at the correct time for two
compatible devices, they will automatically connect to each other.
PIN code WPS is an additional variation of WPS which can be activated from a
device’s web user interface, and includes the use of a PIN code between the
two devices for identification and verification.
WPS can also be activated via a device’s web user interface, which has the
same effect as physically pushing the WPS button (known as PBC or “push
button configuration”).
The “WPS” page displays information about Wireless Protected Setup (WPS),
including a list of available WPS routers or access points. Instructions to set up
PBC WPS and PIN code WPS are included below, followed by a description of
each item on this page.
On the desktop right-top menu bar, click the Wi-Fi icon then click the “WPS…”
shown as below.
1. PIN Code WPS
PIN code WPS includes the additional use of a PIN code between devices. This
is useful for identification and verification purposes in crowded wireless
environments with multiple routers/access points/wireless devices.
24
i. The wireless adapter’s PIN code is listed in the “WPS” page. Go to your
wireless router/access point’s web user interface and input the
wireless adapter’s PIN code in the correct location, and activate PIN
code WPS for your wireless router/adapter.
Please check the instructions for your wireless router/access point
for how to access the web user interface and where to input the
PIN code.
ii. Click the “PIN” button in the bottom left of the “WPS” page. Within
two minutes, the wireless adapter will establish a connection with
your wireless router/access point.
25
2. PBC (Push Button Configuration) WPS
The EW-7722UTn V3 PBC WPS can be executed from this page by following
the steps below or by push the physical WPS button to connect the Wi-Fi
through the VI-4. WPS Setup instruction:
i. Press the WPS button on your wireless router/access point for the
correct length of time to activate its WPS.
Please check the instructions for your wireless device for
how long you need to hold down its WPS button to activate
WPS.
ii. Click the “PBC” button in the “WPS” page. Within two minutes,
the wireless adapter will establish a connection with your
wireless router/access point.
26
WPS button
VI-5. WPS Setup
If your wireless router/access point supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
then you can use this method to connect to a Wi-Fi network.
1. Press the WPS button (often the WPS/Reset button) on your router/access
point to activate WPS.
Please check the instructions for your wireless router/access point for
how long you need to hold down its WPS button to activate WPS.
2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on
the EW-7722UTn V3 to activate its WPS.
