</div>Well, it may work around a completely broken WPS discovery mechanism in<br>
Windows, but it is strictly against the WPS specification and would make<br>
the AP fail some certification tests. Then again, support of PIN method<br>
is mandatory in those tests, too. What kind of use cases would this AP<br>
be used for? Only to work as a Registrar and only allow use of PBC to<br>
connect Enrollees to the network? I.e., no support for use of PIN from<br>
a label or for entering an Enrollee PIN.<br>
