WPS doesnt work?


Recommended Posts

Good morning, I have the following question: Does the WPS button on the R3 router work? And if so, how do I get the R3 to connect to my meshrepeater? I pressed the button on the back of the router and there was no connection on the repeater

It should be working on the latest Early Access versions. It can sometimes take a few tries to work, hold it down and the WPS light should start flashing, then I think you have 2 minutes to initiate on another device

The WPS button does not work for me after I have pressed it several times. I would like to connect the router to a Wi-Fi mesh repeater to cover the signal throughout the house. Is this technically possible?

Apparently WPS may not be working correctly again, we'll need to look into it. It should be possible yes though we haven't got specific support for mesh - if you check the manual for the repeater it should have an alternative way for you to connect it

Could you try changing the SSID of the WiFi and then try WPS please and see if it works?

Hi! I recently bought the Netduma R3. I have version v4.0.540. Reading the forum I noticed that the WPS button doesn't work for me either. I can't activate it to associate a printer. Would you know how to help me?
thank’s

If you hold the button for 5 seconds you should have 2 minutes roughly to connect another device - the WPS light won't appear though but it doesn't necessarily mean it's not working. If it doesn't work when trying to connect then it is possible it's regressed again and I'll have to pass it on to the team

@Netduma FraserHi! I did as you said, trying to synchronize the printer to the router for 2 minutes but nothing. How is it solved?

Thanks for the report, the team will need to work on a fix then, I'll let them know
