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 you 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.

There are two methods the WPS feature can easily connect your wireless devices to

TRENDnet User’s Guide TEW-807ECH

Create or modify wireless network profiles

Wireless network profiles are profiles that define the parameters of an existing network

such as the wireless network name (SSID) and security settings in order to allow for

easier management especially if you connect to multiple wireless networks. When you

connect to a wireless network using the Available Networks window, a profile for that

network is automatically saved to your profile list so that the next time you are in range

of that network, your computer will automatically connect to that predefined wireless

network without having to manually scan and reconnect to the network.

Note: The wireless utility uses built-in Windows® profile management for wireless

networks.

When a parameter (wireless network name or security key) changes in a wireless

network that you had connected to before and saved to the profile list, you may need to

modify the profile of that network and change to the correct parameters in order to

reconnect.

If you are connecting to a wireless network where the wireless network name (SSID) is

not discoverable for security purposes, you may need to manually add a new profile to

the list for this network in order to connect.

Please note that these parameters are set based on the configuration parameters

required by the wireless router/access point.

For additional information on security parameters, you can refer to the Appendix.

1. Open up the wireless utility.

2. Click on the Available Networks tab.

3. Review the options.

When connecting to a wireless network, it is automatically saved to your Windows®

profile list.

• Add – Allows you to manually add a wireless network profile (ex. If the

wireless network is set to hide it’s wireless network name (SSID)). This will add

the profile to Windows® profile list.

• Modify – Allows you to modify an existing wireless network profile in the

Windows® profile list. Select the wireless network to modify in the Available

Networks list, and click this option to modify it. You will only be able to modify

the settings of a wireless network that had been saved in the Windows® profile

list.

• Remove – Allows you to remove an existing wireless network profile in the

Windows® profile list. Select the wireless network to remove in the Available

Networks list, and click this option to remove it. You will only be able to remove

a profile that had been saved in the Windows® profile list.

TRENDnet User’s Guide TEW-807ECH

Enter or modify the parameters for the wireless network profile.

• Profile Name – Enter a name you easily identify in your profile list, for example

“Home” or “Office”. Please note that this is not the same as your wireless

network name and does not need to be the same as your wireless network

name.

• Network Name (SSID) – Enter the wireless network name of the network you

are connecting.

• Network Type – The most typical configuration type is Infrastructure which is

used when connecting to a wireless router/access point. Ad-Hoc is only used

when establishing a wireless one-to-one only connection with another wireless

device or computer operating in ad-hoc mode.

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 which 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 speeds

and 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.
