    Synology RT2600ac and WPS

    Following the instructions for my RT2600ac, I went to Wi Fi Settings > WiFi Connect > WPS and set it to use WPS to connect the smartphones of our guests to the guest_lan I configured. I then took my wife's iPhone, and after tapping the WPS button on the Synology router and seeing that button...

    Failure to connect MB Pro to Synology router.

    There is no way to sufficiently express my thanks for all the help that was offered by contributors to this thread. All I can do is to play it forward and offer help when I know the answer to the questions posed by others seeking technical assistance.

    Failure to connect MB Pro to Synology router.

    I went to the lifewire article and followed the directions for Reset Mac Network Settings: The Complicated Way but after a restart, the MBP continued to fail to connect to the non-guest networks

    Failure to connect MB Pro to Synology router.

    My bad: Monterey is the OS running on the MB Pro. I checked the settings and they are as you specified: set for A+N+AC for 5GHz, B+N for 2.4 I have looked in WiFi Connect, Control Panel, and Network Center but can't find the Advanced settings to which you referred. And, I agree with you, about...

    Failure to connect MB Pro to Synology router.

    I just checked the Synology's Network Center, Wi-Fi Connect, and Control Panel and could not find where to see if it is not set to WPA3. Might I trouble you for exactly where in the settings I need to go to check that?

    Synology RT2600 Rejects PIN

    Just wanted to wrap this thing up and note what finally worked for anyone else who may come across this thread in search of a solution. Using a 2010 MBP w/ an ethernet port: * Connected MBP via ethernet cable to a LAN port on rear of RT2600 * Opened Safari and input [router.synology.com] * It...

    Synology RT2600 Rejects PIN

    The thing that troubles me most deeply is that when I get that [Enter the PIN] code screen and enter the PIN code that it rejects it as invalid. That just makes no sense. I am beginning to question everything I am doing/have done. So you know exactly how I have the two devices set up: Verizon...

    Synology RT2600 Rejects PIN

    Furthermore, when I now go to the bookmark I had set up for the SRM page, it produces the screen with [You are now accessing your Synology router through the WAN port.] etc.

    Synology RT2600 Rejects PIN

    I just input "router.synology.com" into the Safari address bar. It searched for Synology Devices for 30" or so & returned [No DiskStation Found within LAN].

    Synology RT2600 Rejects PIN

    I am trying that right now. However, when I launch the Synology Assistant, while it finds and identifies the RT2600, clicking on [Connect] or [Set Up WOL], nothing happens. Previously, clicking on [Connect] produced that screenshot I posted, above.
