* By default, SecureEasySetup is ready to be used on your access point. If you change the wireless settings, be aware
that for SecureEasySetup to be ready on your access point, it must be set with WPA2 and WPA (PSK) wireless security,
with TKIP and AES encryption, and a pass phrase (which is also commonly called a Network key, WPA key, or WPA Preshared key). You can configure the settings manually on the Wireless configuration page of the access point or
automatically by pressing the SecureEasySetup button on the back of the access point.
The Wireless Nd1 Access Point provides configuration pages so that you can manage
and monitor the access point from any computer on the network. Under normal
operating conditions, you do not need to change the basic configuration that you
established when you installed your access point. However, if your network
environment changes, you may decide to reconfigure your access point to reflect the
new environment.

Using SecureEasySetup
SecureEasySetup™ makes it easy to connect wireless clients to the access point. SecureEasySetup automatically
configures wireless security settings between the access point and your wireless clients.

Access Point or Repeater Mode
If your Wireless Nd1 Access Point Wireless Network Type is set to Access Point or Range Extender mode,
SecureEasySetup transmits SecureEasySetup information, so your wireless clients can execute SecureEasySetup and get
the new Network Name (SSID), method type, encryption type, and pass phrase for your wireless network.
Note: While the access point is in SecureEasySetup configuration mode, you can only configure one
SecureEasySetup device at a time. Attempting to connect multiple devices may result in errors.
When the SecureEasySetup button on the access point is pressed for 1 second:
1. One of the following occurs:
❍If you do not have any wireless security settings applied to your access point, SecureEasySetup generates a
Network Name (SSID), sets WPA2 and WPA (PSK) wireless security with TKIP and AES encryption, and
generates a pass phrase.
❍If you already have a Network Name (SSID), WPA2 and WPA (PSK) wireless security with TKIP and
AES encryption, and a pass phrase set on the access point, SecureEasySetup does not change any of these
settings.
❍If you have another wireless security method or encryption type set on the access point, SecureEasySetup
detects the Network Name (SSID) being used on the access point, then resets your method and encryption
to WPA2 and WPA (PSK) wireless security with TKIP and AES encryption, and generates a pass phrase.
