True, but with the introduction of 1ghz Fibre in UK to get rid of the analogue PSTN phones, people will be switching to Fibre, and if the ISP (Mine doesn't yet - as it will roll out in spring 2024) and our main BT services will be focusing on London first.
Users with Analogue PSTN phones can use a Digital Adaptor which plugs into the power and then uses WPS to sync to any wifi fibre enabled router, either that or the customer would need to buy a digital phone, considering mine is analogue phone is made by BT and not that old, it has sophisticated call blocking, answer machine and call screening, i wasnt planning on changing it! - so I was trying to find out how WPS works for when i need to use the Digital Adapter. My ISP has supplied me with their free hub which has a digital connection for a digital phone, but its not enabled yet, and would only work with digital phones.
Just like you i dont use WPS, but I was trying to see if it would enable and how to use it when the time comes!
