# Why can’t I set up Wireless Mesh using the Mesh button on the DPN-BE7200GR?

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:$danger;">Note: In compliance with Singapore cybersecurity regulations, the WPS function is disabled by default to enhance network security. Since the Mesh button relies on WPS, it will not work unless WPS is enabled.</mark>

<mark style="color:$danger;">To proceed with Wireless Mesh setup, you must first enable WPS via the router’s web GUI.</mark>
{% endhint %}

<mark style="color:$danger;">**Important :**</mark> Ensure WPS is enabled on all routers \
(e.g., if you have two DPN-BE7200GR units, apply the steps below on both devices).

### **Steps to enable WPS**

Log in to the router via a web browser at 192.168.0.1&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
*<mark style="color:red;">Note: You might see a "Privacy Error" or similar security warning. This happens because the router uses a self-signed SSL certificate, which browsers may not recognize as secure. It is safe to proceed on.</mark>*
