If I'm not mistaken, you should still be able to use WPS to join wireless devices to the EX7000. But you can't use the physical WPS button on the EX7000. That's reserved for joining the EX7000 to the router. Instead, you have to use the "soft" WPS button by logging into the EX7000 and going to Settings > Do More > Connect Devices (WPS).
