To configure the wireless network, you can:

•Manually specify your SSID and your wireless security settings. The Wireless-N AccessPoint/Bridge provides two screens for configuring the wireless settings: the basic Wireless Settings screen, which you access under Setup in the main menu, and the Advanced Wireless Settings screen.

•Use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to automatically set the SSID and implement WPA/WPA2 security on both the router and the client device. If the clients in your network are WPS capable, you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to automatically set the SSID and implement WPA/WPA2 security on both the bridge and the client device.
