Is there any WPS configuration settings on the routers web page under Advanced tab/Advanced/Wireless settings?
With the Advance -> Advanced Wireless Settings, apart from the SSID (Which is hidden or off)
The Wireless router radio is ON (on all) , schedule is not set, and Mu-Mimo is Ticked.
Does the WPS physical button light up when pressed?
There are two buttons on the front, WiFi and WPS, and both are lit.

Then I enabled both 2.5ghz and the 5ghz second, and now its enabled, I am not sure if its WPS for 2.5 or 5ghz (2nd radio) but it didn't enable on the 1st 5ghz Radio.
It doesn't state in the manual its is related to 2.5, 5ghz (1) or 5ghz (2)
Interesting. So you had 2.4Ghz disabled and WPS Wizard is grayed out?
