D6200 WiFi DSL Modem Router
2. Under WPS Settings, configure the following settings:
•Router’s PIN. This PIN is the PIN number you use on a registrar (such as from
Network Explorer on a Vista Windows computer) to configure the router’s wireless
settings through WPS. You can also find the PIN on the router’s product label.
•Disable Router’s PIN. You can configure the router’s wireless settings or add a
wireless client through WPS using the router’s PIN only when the PIN is enabled. The
router’s PIN can be disabled temporarily when the router detects suspicious attempts
to break into the router’s wireless settings by using the router’s PIN through WPS.
You can manually enable this function by clearing the check box and clicking the
Apply button.
•Keep Existing Wireless Settings. This setting shows whether the router is in the
WPS configured state. If this check box is not selected, adding a new wireless client
changes the router’s wireless settings to an automatically generated random SSID
and security key. In addition, when this check box is selected, some external
registrars (such as Network Explorer on Vista Windows) might not see the router.
Configuring the basic wireless settings from the router’s web management interface
selects this option automatically.
3. Click Apply.
