View or Change WPS Settings
You can view or change the WPS settings in the Advanced Wireless Settings screen.
 To specify WPS settings:
1. Select ADV
ANCED > Advanced Setup > Advanced Wireless Settings.
The following screen displays:
The Router’s PIN field displays the PIN that you use on a registrar (for example, from the
Network Explorer on a Vista Windows computer) to configure the modem router’s
wireless settings through WPS.
2. Select or clear the Disable Router
’s PIN check box.
The PIN function might temporarily be disabled when the modem router detects
suspicious attempts to break into the modem router
’s wireless settings by using the
modem router’s PIN through WPS. You can manually enable the PIN function by clearing
the Disable Router’s PIN check box.
3. Select or clear the Keep Existing W
ireless Settings check box.
By default this check box is selected so that when WPS is used to join the wireless
network, the router wireless settings do not change. NETGEAR recommends that you
leave this check box selected.
If you clear this check box, the next time a new wireless client uses WPS to connect to
the modem router
, the modem router wireless settings change to an automatically
generated random SSID and security key.
4. Click Apply.
Your changes take effect.
