WPS not working on a brand new CR203 router

[Mickyd261159]

Yesterday we got the upgrade to full fibre and they connected it to a new CR203 router. I've got the skyq, tv and power line Wi-Fi extender all linked via Ethernet cables. It took me 4hrs or more just to link the sky q box, the power line doesn't link also the most frustrating thing is the WPS doesn't work so none of my Wi-Fi extenders work,  spent hours of scouring the internet for help trying all forms of reset and restarts to no avail.

I had similar issues last time I upgraded so I had to bin the sky router for a tp link archer AC2800 which was brilliant but it's not compatible as the new box is connected via an Ethernet cable, looks like I might have to do the same again.

Does anyone have any ideas either how to get the WPS working preferably or a recommendation of an alternative router

@Mickyd261159 If it is the SR203 Black Broadband Hub, when you press the WPS button on the side of it, then there is an Orange light middle off that button starts to flash indicating it is now looking for another WPS to connect too. It will stay flashing for 2 minutes while trying to find another device, and goes Green if it does find something!

And if you do wish to WPS then devices need to be close to the hub to connect!!!!

I tried that on a few occasions plus the short reset and a full reset as well as powering off both the router and the sky q box as well.

I had the WPS flashing amber but it never went green

@Mickyd261159 What is a CR203 Router, see the link below to the current sky fixed landline BB Hubs below! What wi-fi extenders are you using, powerline would not need to use unles you have the WPA version, that may benefit but the Tp-Link setup is better to follow as a guide!

Sky broadband hub

@Mickyd261159 You have the SR203 hub then! Powerline as you do not say which one, both units next to the hub, pair the powerline units first to create a secure powerline, next if using a WPA on the powerline, then wps off the sky hub flashing orange light on the button, then wps pressed on the Tp-Link to complete, allow a few minutes for them all to link together.
