Tutorials

6.1 Overview

This chapter provides tutorials for setting up your EMG2926-Q10A.

• Set Up a Wireless Network with WPS

• Configure Wireless Security without WPS

• Using Multiple SSIDs on the EMG2926-Q10A

6.2 Set Up a Wireless Network with WPS

This section gives you an example of how to set up a wireless network using WPS. This example

uses the EMG2926-Q10A as the AP and NWD210N as the wireless client which connects to a

notebook.

Note: The wireless client must be a WPS-aware device (for example, a WPS USB adapter

or PCI card).

There are two WPS methods for creating a secure connection. This tutorial shows you how to do

both.

• Push Button Configuration (PBC) - create a secure wireless network simply by pressing a

button. See Section 6.2.1 on page 48.This is the easier method.

• PIN Configuration - create a secure wireless network simply by entering a wireless client's PIN

(Personal Identification Number) in the EMG2926-Q10A’s interface. See Section 6.2.2 on page

49. This is the more secure method, since one device can authenticate the other.

6.2.1 Push Button Configuration (PBC)

1 Make sure that your EMG2926-Q10A is turned on. Make sure the WIFI button (at the side panel of

the EMG2926-Q10A) is pushed in, and that the device is placed within range of your notebook.

2 Make sure that you have installed the wireless client (this example uses the NWD210N) driver and

utility in your notebook.

3 In the wireless client’s utility, find the WPS settings. Enable WPS and press the WPS button (Start

or WPS button)

4 Log into EMG2926-Q10A’s Web Configurator and press the Push Button in the Configuration >

Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G > WPS Station screen.
