How can I set up a Netgear N300 WN3000RP using WPS?

If your computer or WiFi device supports WPS, you can use it to join the modem router’s WiFi network. For help using the WPS button, consult the user guide or online documentation that came with that computer or WiFi device. WPS cannot be used with older technology.
