aYou can select the Push Button option if your access point has a hardware Secure Setup or similarly named button, or a virtual pushbutton on a software display.

Before you initiate WPS by clicking Next, go to the access point and activate its pushbutton. The access point will begin accepting WPS connections. Now, on the Adapter WPS Config screen, click Next to have the Adapter automatically configured with the security that is set up on the access point. (If security has not been set on the access point, a random SSID and WPA key will be used.)

bYou can select PIN configuration if the access point does not have a hard or soft security pushbutton. In the text box, the Adapter's randomly generated PIN number will be displayed.

Before you click Next, go to the access point, enter the Adapter's PIN number in the appropriate place on the access point's configuration interface, and click a button -- called Start PIN or something similar -- to activate a search for the Adapter. When the access point identifies the Adapter, it will automatically configure security.

Now click Next to complete WPS.
