•If a connection is established, the router WPS screen displays a message confirming that the wireless client was successfully added to the wireless network. (The router has generated an SSID, implemented WPA/WPA2 wireless security (including a PSK security password) on the router and has sent this configuration to the wireless client.)

To access the Internet from any computer connected to your wireless-N modem router, launch a browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Firefox. You should see the wireless-N modem router’s Internet LED blink, indicating communication to the ISP.

If you are planning a mixed network of WPS capable devices and non-WPS capable devices, NETGEAR suggests that you set up your wireless network and security settings manually first, and use WPS only for adding additional WPS capable devices.
