Thanks!

WPS Button change function ??

Hello, I have a RT-N66U with Merlin ... 32 I used no WPS. Is it possible with the WPS button the guest WLAN switch on? I have to restart the PC and then start the guest WLAN via a web interface. This is very cumbersome. This text I translated with Google. THX Horst

Asuswrt-merlin allows you to turn wifi on or off via the WPS button on models without a WIFI button.

A long time ago, asuswrt had a feature called Turbo Mode on rt-ac68U, this feature is that pressing the LED button will automatically overclock to 1GHz.
