Introduction

The SES/AOSS/EZ-SETUP is the button you can find on your router. You can use that button to Enable/Disable Wireless or to execute scripts when it's pressed.

Prerequisites

In order to get the SES/AOSS/EZ-SETUP to work, you must have Reset Button ENABLED, located in the Administration -> Management section


Reset button

Turning on/off wireless

You can turn on/off the wireless transmit of your router by pressing this button. Ofcourse before that you have to enable the service for that. Therefore go to Services -> Services and tick Enable at the "SES / AOSS / EZ-SETUP Button" group


SES/AOSS/EZ-SETUP button setup

Run script when button pressed

You can also run a script when the SES/AOSS/EZ-SETUP button is pressed, therefore have a look at Script types

Example to test the function of the button

Type in the following commands:

 mkdir /tmp/etc/config

Make a file blink.sesbutton with the following contents (e.g. "vi /tmp/etc/config/blink.sesbutton"):

 for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10;do
   gpio disable 7
   usleep 50000
   gpio enable 7
   usleep 50000
 done
 chmod 744 /tmp/etc/config/blink.sesbutton

Now when you press the SES/AOSS/EZ-SETUP button the DMZ light will flash 10 times.

Caution

Pressing the AOSS button on a WHR-HP-G54 while booting may brick the router.

See http://dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=11658 for more info

There is also a risk that it will break the radio on the WHR-HP-G54 without bricking the router.
