Is it possible to configure WPS in create_ap?












1














I have a PC which can emit a wifi hotspot. Currently I can use create_ap to create a WiFi hotspot in 2.4GHz without problem.



I also have a wifi extender which requires the wifi emitter to enter WPS mode in order to extend the wifi signal.



Could create_ap be switched into WPS mode?

  • @A.B That post is related to hostapd which create_ap depends on, but I don't think create_ap allows the user to configure the underlying hostapd

    Then without modifying create_ap the answer to the question is no: the word "wps", used in hostapd's configuration, doesn't appear anywhere in create_ap

  • The create_ap will auto create a temporary hostapd.conf file , it doesn't include the wps parameter.
