How do I establish a WPS Push-Button connection on my W61 router?
Answer
The WPS (Wireless Protected Setup) feature allows W-Fi clients with the WPS feature and the W61 router to establish a Wi-Fi connection with a push of a button. The WPS feature and WPA2/WPA3 Mixed Personal encryption are enabled by default in the W61 router to perform a WPS push-button connection. Â
The WPS push-button method is performed by pressing the physical or software-based WPS button on the Wi-Fi clients and by pressing the physical WPS button on the bottom of the W61 router.Â
Requirement:
Wi-Fi client with physical or software-based WPS button.
NOTE: Wi-Fi clients without the WPS feature can connect to the Wi-Fi network with the Wi-Fi password.
Establish WPS Connection With Physical WPS Button
Begin the WPS pairing process on a Wi-Fi client.
Windows Wi-Fi clients: Select the W61 SSID in the Windows wireless utility. A message will appear to press the WPS button on the router.Â
Wi-Fi clients with physical WPS button: Move the Wi-Fi client near the W61 router and press the physical WPS button.
Press the WPS button on the bottom of the W61.
NOTE: The exchange may last up to two minutes. Repeat steps 1 - 2 if the WPS connection was unsuccessful.Â
