6.1.2 Configure Wireless Security Using WPS on both your NBG420N
and Wireless Client

This section gives you an example of how to set up wireless network using WPS. This
example uses the NBG420N as the AP and NWD210N as the wireless client which connects
to a notebook.

"

The wireless client must be a WPS-aware device (for example, a WPS USB
adapter or PCI card).

There are two WPS methods for creating a secure connection. This tutorial shows you how to
do both.

Push Button Configuration (PBC) - create a secure wireless network simply by pressing

a button. See

Section 6.1.2.1 on page 74

.This is the easier method.

PIN Configuration - create a secure wireless network simply by entering a wireless

client's PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the NBG420N’s interface. See

Section

6.1.2.2 on page 75

. This is the more secure method, since one device can authenticate the

other.
