Connect WPS printer to Sky Max Pod

I have an old Samsung C410w printer that used to connect to my wireless network (Sky black hub and extender) using WPS. It is located too far from the main hub so connected via the extender. I used to press the WPS button on the printer and extender and all was good. 

 

We have recently upgraded to Sky Max and have the white max hub and several of the Max Pod mesh extender plugs. These don't - from what I can see - have a WPS button. Is there still a way to connect my printer via WPS given that it can not see the main Sky Max Hub (due to the distance and thick walls of this house) - there is a Max Pod in the same room as the printer however.

Re: Connect WPS printer to Sky Max Pod

@Sam391 You need to take the printer down next to the sky Max hub and wps them both at that location, be careful not to hold the WPS on the hub too long, 3 second press on the button max, if it has a light on the Max button will start flashing orange then wps on the printer and leave them to connect!

 

WPS works WAY different for the sky Max hub in operation due to the WPA3 mode off operation that it supports!
