WPS Button

Use the WPS button on the Wireless USB Adapter to automatically connect multiple devices to the network. Within two minutes, press the physical or virtual button on wireless client devices to enable them to join the WLAN.

The WPS configuration process may be initiated on any device and there is no restriction to the order in which buttons are pressed.

Any WPS-compatible devices could unintentionally join the WLAN if they are within range during the two-minute set up period after the WPS button is pressed.
