8.4 Configuring Wireless Security Using
WPS
This section gives you an example of how to set up wireless network using WPS.
This example uses the MWR222 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 8.4.1 Push Button Configuration (PBC).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 MWR222’s interface.
See 8.4.2 PIN Configuration. This is the more secure method, since one device
can authenticate the other.
8.4.1 Push Button Configuration (PBC)
1 Make sure that your MWR222 is turned on and that it is within range of
your computer.
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 utility, find the WPS settings. Enable WPS and press
the WPS button (Start or WPS button)
4 Log into MWR222’s Web Configurator and press the Push Button button
in the Network > Wireless Client > WPS Station screen.
Note: Your MWR222 has a WPS button located on its panel, as well as a WPS
button in its configuration utility. Both buttons have exactly the same function; you
can use one or the other.
Note: It doesn’t matter which button is pressed first. You must press the second
button within two minutes of pressing the first one.
The MWR222 sends the proper configuration settings to the wireless client. This
may take up to two minutes. Then the wireless client is able to communicate with
the MWR222 securely.
