QSS button (Quick Security Setup)

Dear usernixes,

According to:

http://www.tp-link.com/lk/article/?id1

There are routers (coincidentally, I have one of them) that accept a
new device to establish a wireless connection without having to use
password. The method is simple:

1- Push the QSS button on the router.
2- Run the QSS.EXE program on your windows machine in 2 minutes after
you pressed the QSS button.

That is it! You are now connected!

But, hey! QSS.EXE? How can we do it in our debian?

Thanks!
Beco.

User guide of your router will give you all information. If you dont have it,
download it.

Hi Thierry,

Thanks for the reply, but the user guide did not help.

http://cz.tp-link.com/resources/sof...204111.pdf

I just want to know if there is a QSS program (binary) for debian.

Method ONE is as simple as:

1) Press QSS button on the router.
2) Run QSS.EXE on your computer.

User guide suggests my computer also has a QSS button, and that is not true.
Also, user guide name the binary as "Configuration Utility of QSS",
and even the pictures looks like windows style.


Thanks,
Beco.

I guess no.

But, using a wired connection as in paragraph 3.1, 3.2, you should be able to
use the QSS from the router thru your internet explorer as shown in 4.3 and
later. Good luck!!!
Thierry

You install and set up wpasupplicant to do it.

The generic term for this is "Wifi Protected Setup" or WPS. Support
isn't terribly well integrated into linux's wireless tools at the
moment, but you can install "reaver" (apt-get install reaver), which
should help you get connected.
