Enter your registered email address and password and click the LOG IN button.
The BASIC Home page displays.
5.
Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Advanced Wireless Settings.
The Advanced Wireless Settings page displays.
6. Scroll down to the WPS Settings section.
The Router’s PIN field displays the fixed PIN that you use if you want to configure
the access point/router’s WiFi settings from another platform through WPS.
7.
To disable the PIN, clear the Enable Router’s PIN check box.
By default, the Enable Router’s PIN check box is selected and the access
point/router’s PIN is enabled. For enhanced security, you can disable the access
point/router’s PIN by clearing the Enable Router’s PIN check box. However, when
you disable the access point/router’s PIN, WPS is not disabled because you can still
use the physical WPS button.
Note: The PIN function might temporarily be disabled automatically if the access
point/router detects suspicious attempts to break into the access point/router’s WiFi
settings by using the access point/router’s PIN through WPS.
8. To allow the WiFi settings to be changed automatically when you use WPS, clear the
Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box for the 2.4 GHz band, for the 5 GHz
band, or for both bands.
By default, the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check boxes are selected. We
recommend that you leave these check boxes selected. If you clear the check box
for a band, the next time a new WiFi device uses WPS to connect to the access
point/router, the access point/router WiFi settings for the band change to an
automatically generated random SSID and passphrase. For information about viewing
this SSID and passphrase, see Set up or change an open or secure WiFi network on
page 62. Clear the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box for a band only if
you want to allow the WPS process to change the SSID and passphrase for WiFi
access.
Warning: If you clear the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box for a band
and use WPS to add a WiFi device to the access point/router’s WiFi network, the
SSID and passphrase for the band are automatically generated and other WiFi devices
that are already connected to the access point/router’s WiFi network might be
disconnected.
