Abstract
A network device initiating WPS with a client device based on receiving a signal from a phone. The network device receives a feature number code from a phone connected to the network device. The feature number code is entered on the phone using a keypad and causes the network device to initiate WPS with a client device. The network device sends the phone a first signal indicating that WPS has been triggered. The network device determines a success of the WPS to connect the client device to the Wi-Fi network. The network device sends the phone a second signal indicating that the client device successfully connected to the Wi-Fi network. The first and second signals may be audio signals that are emitted by the speaker of the phone. The network device stores client device connection information in memory.
