WPS supports WPA and WPA2 WiFi security. If your DST router network is open (no WiFi
security is set, which is not the default setting for the DST router), connecting with WPS
automatically sets WPA + WPA2 WiFi security on the DST router network and generates a
random passphrase. You can view this passphrase (see Specify Basic WiFi Settings on
page 146).
You can use the physical button and software button to let a WiFi device join only the main
WiFi network, not the guest WiFi network.
 To use WPS with the push button method to join the DST router’s main WiFi network:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the network.
2. Enter http://www
.routerlogin.net.
A login window displays.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin.
The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADV
ANCED > WPS Wizard.
The page displays a description of the WPS method.
5. Click the Next button.
By default, the Push Button (recommended) radio button is selected.
6. Either click the
button onscreen or press the WPS button on the right side panel of the
DST router.
For two minutes, the DST router attempts to find the WiFi device (that is, the client) that
you want to join the DST router’
s main WiFi network.
7. Within two minutes, go to the WiFi device and use its WPS button to connect to the DST
router’s main WiFi network.
The WPS process automatically sets up your WiFi device with the network password
when it connects.
The DST router WPS page displays a confirmation message.
