4.7 Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)

Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS) is a new and easy way to configure the encryption for your wireless network clients. In order to use it with your router, firstly, you must configure the wireless encryption on the router. You can find instructions for configuring it in the User Manual located on the CD that came with your router. Secondly, you will need to have a router that supports this feature, like our AR680W AirLink101 300N Wireless router. If your wireless adapters do not support WPS, you will need to set up the wireless security manually and you can skip this section.

In the instructions below, we are going to use the utility, Wireless Monitor that comes with the Airlink101 300N Wireless Adapters, AWLC6080, AWLH6080, and AWLL6080 with the AR680W AirLink101 300N Wireless router as the example.

First, go to the computer with the wireless adapter and open the Wireless Monitor. Click on the WPS Connect button.

Note: If you do not see the WPS Connect button, you can go to www.airlink101.com to download the latest utility and driver.

Choose your configuration method, either Push Button or Pin Code and click Next.
