Hi Robert-sk-2017,
Clearing or unchecking the Enable router's PIN will disable the WPS connection via the PIN but still WPS is working if you use the WPS button.
WPS via the button will only work if the device you are trying to connect uses a WPS button as well.
There is no option to fully disable the WPS.
