Firmware Version: 1.2.8

Hello everyone.

I want to connect an iPhone using WPS mode and not entering password manually.

I'm going close to Deco №1 and pushing WPS through Deco app, it says available for 120 seconds after that I'm going on my iPhone to settings-wi-fi see my wi-fi with password and clicking on it. After that nothing happens. It's not working or I am doing something wrong ?

Question : how to connect mobile devices using WPS on Deco M5 ?

Hi Boriy,

 

Below is the instruction to enable WPS function on Deco, you can have a reference.

Meanwhile, you can try to use the password to join the Deco's wifi network. FYI, once it is connected, you do not have to re-enter the password to join it unless you change the wifi password. 

 

Good day.

iPhones (and iPads, Macs) do not support WPS.  Apple considers it not secure enough.

 

Other devices, which do support WPS, will work in the way you describe.
