Samsung SM-T2105GYYXAR user manual WPS Push Button, WPS PIN Entry, To pair your device using WPS

WPS Push Button

The WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) feature (sometimes associated with a physical or on-screen button on most WAPs) allows you to pair your device and WAP without the need for entering a passcode. This process is similar to Wi-Fi Direct pairing.

In this case, once the WPS feature is active on your WAP, your device can then detect it and then immediately pair to it.

Note: WPS-capable routers display in the Wi-Fi list of available devices with the term (WPS available) below their name.

To pair your device using WPS:

1.Follow the WPS activation instructions specific to your Wireless Access Point.

1.Touch Settings ➔ Wi-Fi.

2.Touch Menu ➔ WPS push button.

3.Once the connection is complete, confirm that the external router displays in the Wi-Fi list as connected.

WPS PIN Entry

If a WPS Push Button does not work, there is an alternative WPS connection method where you would use a device generated PIN number to establish the connection. This number is then entered into your WAP’s WPS client PIN field to complete the connection.

To pair your device using WPS PIN:

1.Touch Settings ➔ Wi-Fi.

2.Touch Menu ➔ WPS PIN entry.

3.Write down the generate PIN number and enter it into your Wi-Fi Router’s client PIN field.

4.Once the connection is complete, confirm the external router now appears in the Wi-Fi list as connected.

Wi-Fi Direct Settings

You can configure your device to connect directly with other Wi-Fi capable devices. This is an easy way to transfer data between devices. These devices must be enabled for Wi-Fi Direct communication. This connection is direct and not via a hot spot or WAP.
