AC1750 WiFi Cable Modem Router

The Router’s PIN field displays the PIN that you use on a registrar (for example, from the Network Explorer on a Vista Windows computer) to configure the modem router’s wireless settings through WPS.

5.(Optional) Select or clear the Disable Router’s PIN check box.

The PIN function might temporarily be disabled when the modem router detects suspicious attempts to break into the modem router’s wireless settings by using the modem router’s PIN through WPS. You can manually enable the PIN function by clearing the Disable Router’s PIN check box.

6.(Optional) Select or clear the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box.

By default, the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box is selected. NETGEAR recommends that you leave this check box selected.

If you clear this check box, the next time a new wireless client uses WPS to connect to the modem router, the modem router wireless settings change to an automatically generated random SSID and security key.

7.Click the Apply button. Your changes are saved.
