Connect to your wireless network using WPS

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is a feature that makes it easy to connect devices to your wireless network. If your wireless router/access point supports WPS, you can use this feature to easily connect wireless devices to your network.
Note : You can typically find out if your wireless router/access point supports WPS just by looking at the physical device. There should be a WPS push button located on the exterior casing of the device, if not, your device may not support WPS or you may need to reference your device documentation as to how WPS can be initiated on the device. If your device does not have an identifiable WPS push button on the exterior location, we would recommend using the standard connection method on the previous page.

Appendix

How to choose the type of security for your wireless network
Setting up wireless security is very important. Leaving your wireless network open and unsecure could expose your entire network and personal files to outsiders. TRENDnet recommends reading through this entire section and setting up wireless security on your new router.
There are a few different wireless security types supported in wireless networking each having its own characteristics that may be more suitable for your wireless network taking into consideration compatibility, performance, as well as the security strength along with using older wireless networking hardware (also called legacy hardware). It is strongly recommended to enable wireless security to prevent unwanted users from accessing your network and network resources (personal documents, media, etc.).
In general, it is recommended that you choose the security type with the highest strength and performance supported by the wireless computers and devices in your network. Please review the security types to determine which one you should use for your network.

Wireless Encryption Types

  • WEP : Legacy encryption method supported by older 802.11a/b/g hardware. This is the oldest and least secure type of wireless encryption. It is generally not recommended to use this encryption standard, however, if you have old 802.11 b, 802.11g or 802.11a wireless adapters or computers with old embedded wireless cards(wireless clients), you may have to set your router to WEP to allow the old adapters to connect to the router. Note: This encryption standard will limit connection speeds to 54Mbps.

  • WPA : This encryption is significantly more robust than the WEP technology.
    Much of the older 802.11a or 802.11g hardware has been upgraded (with firmware/driver upgrades) to support this encryption standard. Total wireless speeds under this encryption type however are limited to 54Mbps.

  • WPA-Auto: This setting provides the router with the ability to detect wireless devices using either WPA or WPA2 encryption. Your wireless network will automatically change the encryption setting based on the first wireless device connected. For example, if the first wireless client that connects to your wireless network uses WPA encryption your wireless network will use WPA encryption. Only when all wireless clients disconnect to the network and a wireless client with WPA2 encryption connects your wireless network will then change to WPA2 encryption. NOTE: WPA2 encryption supports 802.11n speedsand WPA encryption will limit your connection speeds to 54Mbps

  • WPA2: This is the most secure wireless encryption available today, similar to WPA encryption but more robust. This encryption standard also supports the highest connection speeds. TRENDnet recommends setting your router to this encryption standard. If you find that one of your wireless network devices does not support WPA2 encryption, then set your router to either WPA or WPA-Auto encryption.
    Note : Check the specifications of your wireless network adapters and wireless appliances to verify the highest level of encryption supported.

  • Open or Shared \ WEP – Enter the WEP key for your wireless network. The wireless network has WEP security enabled, open or shared. Please note that the Key Index 1-4 must also match the same index configured on the wireless router/access point.
    WEP Key Format| HEX| ASCII
    ---|---|---
    Character set| 0-9 & A-F, A only| Alphanumeric (a,b, C,?*, /,1,2, etc.)
    64-bit key length| 10 characters| 5 characters
    128-bit key length| 26 characters| 13  characters

  • WPA/WPA2-PSK/TKIP or AES – Wireless network has WPA/WPA2-PSK security enabled, TKIP or AES.

  • Note : 8-63 alphanumeric characters (a,b, C,?,*, /,1,2, etc.)
    Below is a brief comparison chart of the wireless security types and the recommended configuration depending on which type you choose for your wireless network. Security Standard| WEP| WPA| WPA2
    ---|---|---|---
    Compatible Wireless Standards| IEEE 802.11a/b/g (802.11n devices will operate at 802.11g to connect using this standard)| IEEE 802.11a/b/g (802.11n/ac devices will operate at 802.11g to connect using this standard)| IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac
