Add a Client Using the WPS Button

Note: The first time you use WPS, it assigns a random network name (SSID) and a random password to your wireless network. If you want to keep the network name and password you specified in the Wireless Settings screen, you must select the Keep Existing Settings check box in the Advanced Wireless Settings screen. See Advanced Wireless Settings on page 52.

A client is a computer or mobile device that connects wirelessly to the modem router. After a device is added as a client, it can automatically connect to the modem router.

To add a client to your modem router using the WPS button:
