Disable WPS on R7800

[spocko]

Is there a way to completely disable WPS on the R7800?

I have already disabled the PIN in the advanced wireless settings, but still would like to completely disable the feature. I'm using Voxel firmware.

(Sorry if this has been answered before, the forum won't allow a search for "wps" because it's too short.)

What do you mean with "completely disable the feature" ?

I added what I think you mean to the latest add-on: kamoj-addon_200315-232848-5.1b7-7.
It's available at the normal beta download area.
Hope you can test it and give me feed back in Private Mail.

Thanks Kamoj. I don't use WPS, so I was just hoping to "disable" it so it doesn't do anything. Was kinda hoping there might be a nvram setting. I see these values in nvram, but don't know what they do:

nvram show | grep wps
wps_pin_attack_check=1
wps_status=5
endis_wla_wps=1
wps=xxxxxxxxxx
wps_pin_attack_num=3
wla_wps_status=5
wps_pin_history_failures=0
wps_client=
endis_wl_wps=1
wps_alert=0
wps_lock_down=0

I suppose if the PIN and the button are both disabled, then the wps service is essentially blocked. I'll check out the new addon version when I can get my family off the Internet.

I've always heard that WPS is an attack vector into your router, so I understand why it should be disabled. I had a printer that connected to a different router through WPS, I was hoping once it was connected that WPS could then be disabled, but no. I had to reconnect it from scratch using the WPA2 key.

I don't know if you got it working without the add-on, so here are commands to disable wps:

nvram set endis_wla_wps=0
nvram set endis_wl_wps=0
nvram set wla_endis_pin=1
nvram set endis_pin=1
nvram commit
/sbin/wlan wps --wps_stop
{ sleep 5; /sbin/ledcontrol -n wps -c green -s off; } &
chmod -x /sbin/wpsled
chmod -x /sbin/wps_pbc

Great, thank you Kamoj.
