How to disable WPS button on R6800 router?

1. Is there a way to disable the WPS button on my R6800 router? If there is, I can't find it. 2. If I reset the router to factory settings, will the WPS button be enabled or disabled by default?

Might check under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless settings to see if there is any WPS options. There may or may not be. Review the online user manual as well for WPS information.

    I haven't been able to find any solutions in the software itself, or the manual. I appreciate your effort, though. :O)
