Manual Method

To connect manually:
1.
Open the software that manages your wireless connections on the wireless device
(laptop computer, gaming device, iPhone) that you want to connect to your wireless
modem router. The wireless software scans for all wireless networks in your area.
2.
Look for your network and select it. If you did not change the name of your network during
the setup process, look for the default WiFi network name (SSID) and select it. The default
SSID is located on the product label on the bottom of the wireless modem router.
3.
Enter the wireless modem router password and click Connect. The default wireless modem
router passphrase is located on the product label on the bottom of the wireless modem
router.
4.
Repeat steps 1–3 to add other wireless devices.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Method

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for easily adding computers and other devices to
a home network while maintaining security. To use WPS, make sure that all wireless devices
to be connected to the network are Wi-Fi certified and support WPS. During the connection
process, the client gets the security settings from the wireless modem router so that every
device in the network has the same security settings.
If your wireless device supports WPS (Push 'N' Connect), use the following procedure.
To use WPS to join the wireless network:
1.
Press the WPS button on the wireless modem router top panel.
2.
Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your wireless device, or follow the WPS
instructions that came with the device. The device is now connected to your wireless
modem router.
3.
Repeat steps 1–2 to add other WPS wireless devices.
