Easy Wi-Fi Connection with WPS function 

Purpose:   

The setting of the wireless network connection is never easy. To avoid the complex 

setting of the wireless connection you can enable the WPS function. 

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) refers to the easy configuration of the encrypted 

connection between the device and the wireless router. The WPS makes it easy to add 

new devices to an existing network without entering long passphrases. There are two 

modes of the WPS connection, the PBC mode and the PIN mode. 

Note:

  If  you  enable

the  WPS function,  you do not  need to configure the  parameters 

such  as  the  encryption  type  and  you  don’t  need  to  know  the  key  of  the  wireless 

connection.

PBC refers to the Push-Button-Configuration, in which the user simply has to push a 

button, either an actual or virtual one (as the 

  button on the configuration 

interface of the IE browser), on both the Access Point (and a registrar of the network) 

and the new wireless client device.
