If a message is displayed telling that no access point can be found, select <Close>.

Select <Other Connections>.

Select <WPS Push Button Mode>.

Press the button on the wireless LAN router.

The button must be pressed within 2 minutes after selecting <WPS Push Button Mode> in step 3.

Depending on your wireless LAN router, you might need to press and hold the button for 2 seconds or longer. Be sure to check the instruction manual of the device you are using.
