Disable WPS on R9000 Nighthawk X10 AD7200
I read this KB on the subject:
It says this:
To disable the Router PIN method:
Login to the router GUI by typing www.routerlogin.net on an Internet browser's address bar. Note: Default logins are: Username = admin, Password = password. Go to Advanced Setup menu and select Wireless Settings. Under WPS settings, put a check mark on Disable Router's PIN box.
Note: If your model does not have a "Disable Router's PIN" option, uncheck the "Enable Router’s PIN" box instead. Hit Apply button to save settings.
Problem is, the R9000 does not have a Disable Router's PIN box or an Enable Router's PIN box. I have the latest firmware (V1.0.5.24), updated today.
Anyone know how to disable WPS (either all of WPS or just the PIN method) on the R9000? Thanks, Joe
- when your in advanced tab, is there a wps wizard on the left? if so, click that.
I can't see because not everything is showing. You got just enough :)

In that KB article, none of the "applies to" devices are the R9000.
Do you have a screen snip of what you actual see when you go to that location?
