Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
Your CPEi 885 supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to simplify the setup of your
wireless security. WPS can be used to configure client devices such as wireless
adapters in laptop computers that support WPS. If your client devices do not support
WPS, you will have to manually configure those devices. In order to use WPS to set
up your client devices, access the security section of the Wi-Fi configuration by
clicking on the Wi-Fi icon, then clicking on Security. Before you begin, you should
configure the security settings in the CPEi 885 as described in the section above
before continuing.
NOTE
If you have client devices that do not support Wi-Fi Protected Setup, note the wireless
settings, and then manually configure those client devices.
There are two primary options available when utilizing WPS. Use the option below that
applies to the client device you are configuring. NOTE: WPS configures one client
device at a time. Repeat the procedure for each client device that supports WPS.
Option #1, Push Button Control (PBC)
Use this method if your client device has a WPS button. Note that the button may be a
physical button located on the client device or a software button located on the client
device setup screen.
• There are two options available with the PBC method on the CPEi885, hard
ware button and software button.
• Hardware button PBC on the CPEi 885
- Locate the WPS button on the back of the CPEi885 and client device.
Note that the button may be a physical button located on the client
device or a software button located on the device setup screen.

- Navigate to the Security page of the Wi-Fi section of the CPEi 885 GUI as
detailed above.
- Select “PBC” at the WPS Method dialog box and select “Apply”.
- Press the WPS button on the client device.
- The connection will be automatically established.
Option #2, Personal Identification Number (PIN)
Use this method if your client device has a WPS PIN number.
• Initiate the WPS PIN procedure on the client device per the manufacturer’s
instructions.
• Navigate to the Security page of the Wi-Fi section of the CPEi885 GUI as detailed
above.
• Make sure the “PIN” option is selected in the WPS Method dialog box in the Wi-Fi
Security Screen.
• Enter the PIN number of the client device in the field on this screen.
• Click “Apply” on the CPEi885 GUI screen. This must be completed within 2
minutes of starting the procedure on the client device.
• The connection will be automatically established.

Beacon IntervalEnter a value between 1 and 65,535 milliseconds. The
Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the
beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the device to
synchronize the other wireless network.
RTS ThresholdThis value should remain at its default setting of 2347. The
range is 0-2347 bytes. Should you encounter inconsistent
data flow, only minor modifications are recommended. If a
network packet is smaller than the preset RTS threshold
size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The
device sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular
receiving wireless client on the network and negotiates the
sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the
wireless client responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to
acknowledge the right to begin transmission.
Preamble TypeThe Preamble defines the length of the CRC block (Cyclic
Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting
data transmission errors) for communication between the
wireless router and the roaming wireless network adapters.
Note: High network traffic areas should use the shorter
preamble type.

If CTS is set to “Disable” in a mixed mode environment

This section contains two examples of configuring TCP/IP in a Windows environment.
Most computers already have the TCP/IP configuration enabled. Use the following
procedures to verify that the configuration is set up. Configure all client computers on
your network for TCP/IP (the protocol that controls communication among computers).
Two examples are provided in this document:
• Configuring TCP/IP in Windows XP
• Configuring TCP/IP in Windows Vista
NOTE
Follow the instructions in your computer user manual for other Operating
Systems.
