NETGEAR WNR2000V3 Setup Manual page 28

You can use WPS in one of two ways:
• If the router's SSID and security option have already been set (see
Wireless Security" on page
quickly and simply by using WPS. In this case, the existing wireless settings are transmitted to
the WPS-capable device.
• If the router's wireless options have not yet been configured and security has not been enabled
(the router is in its default state), WPS automatically configures the SSID and wireless security
settings for the router and then transmits these settings to the wireless device, such as a
wireless PC.
The first method is explained here. For more information on the second method, see the User
Manual.
If your network consists of WPS capable devices and non-WPS capable devices, NETGEAR
suggests that you set up your wireless network and security settings first using the manual or
traditional method (see
only for adding additional WPS capable devices.
The only security setting that doesn't work with WPS is WEP with shared-key
authentication.
To add a wireless device using WPS:
1. Press the WPS button on your router. The router will start transmitting its wireless settings.
You have 2 minutes to press a corresponding WPS button on your wireless device.
On your wireless device, either:
2.
• Press an external WPS button on the outside of the device or,
• Open the WPS utility on the device and follow the instructions to connect using WPS.
The WPS LED on the router will continue to blink during the 2-minute window. When the
connection has been made, the WPS LED will turn solid green. If no connection is made, when the
LED stops blinking it will turn off..
If security was already configured using the traditional method, the WPS LED will
remain on.
Then, to access the Internet, launch a browser (such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla
Firefox) from the device. You should see the wireless router's Internet LED blink, indicating
communication with the ISP.
