How to set up wireless security using 
Wi-Fi Protected Setup
Why would I use Wi-Fi Protected Setup? Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ is a feature 
of your router that makes it easy to add devices to your wireless network  If you 
have network devices, such as wireless printers, that support Wi-Fi Protected 
Setup, then you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup to add the devices  
Wi-Fi Protected Setup activity light
The power indicator light on the back of the router (or on top for the E4200) 
indicates the status of Wi-Fi Protected Setup while you are connecting devices 
 •
When Wi-Fi  Protected  Setup  is  connecting  a  network  device,  the  light 
flashes slowly

If there is an error, the light flashes quickly for two minutes  Wait until it 
stops flashing, then try again
