It would be amazing if you can have the option to completely disable/shut off WPS for the x60 Deco!

WPS has many security issues and is an old standard... for such a new device, I'm surprised this setting isn't available...

Hi, thank you very much for the feedback.

There is no physical WPS button on the Deco and only a software enabling button on the Deco APP. So It has remained de-activated unless we manually enable it. 

Supposing there is an option to completely disable/shut off WPS, it would still have two options: on/off unless we decided to remove the WPS feature forever. It might not be secure enough but it is still necessary for some of the old backward devices.

Best regards.

I was able to hack into my own network via WPS via Reave, without pressing the button...

 

Most routers have a setting or a checkbox for "Enable WPS"... Even routers that came out 4+ years ago

Thank you very much for the update. I will report to the engineers again and inform them of the potential risk. If there is any further news about it, I will update here as soon as possible.

Best regards.

A legit known vulnerability for years. Interesting Deco doesn't provide this option already
