Chapter 4 Tutorials

Note: The wireless client must be a WPS-aware device (for example, a WPS USB adapter or PCMCIA card).

There are two WPS methods to set up the wireless client settings:

Push Button Configuration (PBC) - simply press a button. This is the easier of the two methods.

PIN Configuration - configure a Personal Identification Number (PIN) on the AMG1312-T Series. A wireless client must also use the same PIN in order to download the wireless network settings from the AMG1312-T Series.

Push Button Configuration (PBC)

1Make sure that your AMG1312-T Series is turned on and your notebook is within the cover range of the wireless signal.

2Make sure that you have installed the wireless client driver and utility in your notebook.

3Make sure wireless LAN is enabled and the wireless security mode is set to WPA-PSK2or No Security in the Network Setting > Wireless > General screen.

4In the wireless client utility, go to the WPS setting page. Enable WPS and press the WPS button (Start or WPS button).

5Push and hold the WPS button on the AMG1312-T Series for 1-2 seconds. Alternatively, you may log into AMG1312-T Series’s web configuration, enable WPS and click the WPS button in the Network Setting > Wireless > WPS screen.

Note: It doesn’t matter which button (on the client or the AMG1312-T Series) is pressed first. You must press the second button within two minutes of pressing the first one.

The AMG1312-T Series sends the proper configuration settings to the wireless client. This may take up to two minutes. The wireless client is then able to communicate with the AMG1312-T Series securely.

The following figure shows you an example of how to set up a wireless network and its security by pressing a button on both AMG1312-T Series and wireless client.
