enable WPS

[giuseppeg88@…]

Can you enable WPS feature in the next fw?

PS: there was in the 2.3.5.0 RC2 (and it worked correctly)

It seems that WPS has not been disabled, what makes you think that it is?

On my wpa_supplicant scan output, I can see WPS being advertised on the MyPlace? network on my 2.0n. I don't have any WPS configured, so I can't check if it works.

[giuseppeg88@…]

I did the tests with a PC running Windows 7 and a fonera 2.0n (with the same parameters) with the following firmwares: 2.3.5.0 RC2: works perfectly 2.3.6.0: nothing appears

If I remember correctly, Iurgi (perhaps), in IRC, had confirmed the temporary disabling of this function in the transition from 2.3.5.0rc2 to 2.3.6.0 .

[matthijs]

WPS will be completely disabled in 2.3.6.1 (since it causes problems with some Android phones, see #540). After that, we should find out how to fix it again.

[giuseppeg88@…]

If I understand it, currently are you updating the wireless drivers of the fonera? If so, can you see if you can turn on again this feature?

[matthijs]

I might have a look after the 2.3.7.0 beta, but only if I have extra time :-)

[giuseppeg88@…]

Can you add a command in the menu of the fonera to enable/disable this feature?

I saw that to enable/disable it is sufficient change the value "0" with "7" (and vice versa) in the line 218 of the file  rt3052.sh.

Since it had been temporarily disabled because it gave some problems with some phones with Android, it would be a good idea to leave it disabled by default (and you can activate it manually from the menu)

This patch re-enables the wps feature

[matthijs]

(In [1932]) ra_wifi: Fix and re-enable WPS again.

In a driver config update in r1638 the WscConfStatus? variable, which is required for WPS to work, was accidentally removed. This commit re-adds it and enables WPS again.

Thanks to Giuseppe Giudice for this patch.

Closes: #642 References: #540

(In [1934]) luci: Allow disabling WPS.

This allows users to disable WPS, in case the problems with Android phones and WPS persist.
