Huawei HG658c manual Setting Up a Wireless Connection

3 Setting Up a Wireless Connection

If a wireless network adapter is installed on your computer, you can connect your computer to the HG658c over a wireless connection.

The method for installing the wireless adapter and its driver varies by vendor. For details, see the installation guide provided by the vendor of your wireless adapter.

There are two methods for setting up a wireless connection between the HG658c and your computer.

3.1Setting up a Wireless Connection Using the WPS Button

The HG658c supports the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) function in Push Button Configuration (PBC) mode. If your wireless network adapter also supports the WPS function, do the following to connect your computer to the HG658c over a wireless connection:

1.Press and hold the WPS button (on the HG658c side panel) more than 1 second.

2.The WLAN indicator light on the HG658c starts blinking, indicating that the HG658c is in the WPS negotiation state.

3.Enable the WPS negotiation function on the computer within 2 minutes of the previous step.

4.Wait until the HG658c WLAN indicator light stops blinking and remains steady on. This indicates that a wireless connection is set up between the HG658c and the computer.

The WPS function can be used only when the security mode of the WLAN is set to WPA2-PSKor WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK.
