WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
In Turkish: WPS (Wi-Fi Korumalı Kurulum)
A shortcut that lets a device join Wi-Fi with a button or short PIN. The PIN method has known weaknesses, so it is best turned off.
WPS was made to save you typing a long password, for instance on a printer. The PIN version can be guessed by software far faster than a good password, so security guides commonly suggest turning it off.
What to do
- Look for WPS in your router settings and turn it off.
- Join new devices by typing the Wi-Fi password instead.
- Ask your provider if you cannot find the setting.
