MR1100 Nighthawk PIN

Hi,

I want to connect a periferal to my PC that has WiFi capability. It comes up under my connections so the PC and, I assume, the router are seeing it but to go any further I'm asked to provide the 8 digit PIN which should be on the router cable.

There is no number on the cable so I'm wondering how I can go about finding it as I'm stumped without it.

Thanks.

    This sounds like WPS, you can either press the power button toggle through the info which should have the WPS pin, or connect another device log in through web browser goto setup and wireless there you should find the WPS pin
