WPS link in web interface on Nighthawk RAX70 6.6gb
Just got myself the Nighthawk AX6600 Tri-Band AX8, as an upgrade to my original Nighthawk ADSL/VDSL Modem / Cable Router
I noticed in the Web Interface there is a link or tab for WPS, and whilst there is a WPS button, the tab or link is disabled so I can't click it or select it in the interface.
How do I use this tab or feature? since I will be needing it later, and can't seem to find out from the full manual or online how to enable it or control it.
All other options are fine and working perfectly.
And now you know. Glad you figured it out.
Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Can you post a picture of this web page in your next post?
Is there any WPS configuration settings on the routers web page under Advanced tab/Advanced/Wireless settings?
The option or tab, is greyed out and disabled.
Photo posted which shows the firmware version, which I updated yesterday - cant click the WPS Wizard as its disabled or greyed out.
With the Advance -> Advanced Wireless Settings, apart from the SSID (Which is hidden or off)
The Wireless router radio is ON (on all) , schedule is not set, and Mu-Mimo is Ticked.
Does the WPS physical button light up when pressed?
