WPS button Connection Setup

Wireless devices that support WPS, including Android phones, tablets, and most USB network adapters can be connected to your router through this method. 

Note: WPS is not supported by iOS devices. The WPS function cannot be configured if the wireless function of the router is disabled. Also, the WPS function will be disabled if your wireless encryption is WEP. Please make sure that the wireless function is enabled and is configured with the appropriate encryption before configuring the WPS.

2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your router
