I have read the documentation and googled extensively but, when I try to initiate WPS, I always receive a response of "FAIL". Nobody else seems to have this issue, so what am I doing wrong?

I only want to enable this temporarily as it is the only way I know to connect a doorbell camera that I obtained for free and need to "hack".

> uci show wireless | grep wps
wireless.wifinet6.wps_pushbutton='1'

> hostapd_cli wps_pbc
Selected interface 'phy1-ap3'
FAIL

I have tried on both a Turris Omnia (OpenWRT 23.05.3) and TP-Link Archer C7 (OpenWRT 23.05.2). On each, and per the instructions, I installed hostapd-utils and replaced the stock wpad-basic-mbedtls with the full-featured version (I tried both wpad and wpad-mbedtls).

I have 4 WLANs on each radio. I tried configuring the single WLAN of interest with the option wps_pushbutton '1' as well as setting it on all WLANs on that radio (per a suggestion I found), but same result.

I've tried adding other wps_… options, rebooting, and everything in between, but same result. I don't see anything relevant in the syslog, and can't find a way to increase verbosity for hostapd. I've even looked at the source code for hostapd_cli which didn't really help.

Any thoughts?

I invested way more time in designing this then I should have, but the original was brittle and breaking and I didn't want this slice of early Internet to disappear into a landfill.

This wasn't recent, but thought it was a worthwhile post to get this community kicked off.

A while back, my car (2011 Kia Optima) started having an issue where the gas fill nozzle would click off early during fill; I would have to fill slowly which was extremely annoying. I did all of the basic troubleshooting I found on Google with no results. I ended up fixing it, but it was a very difficult problem to track down, so I was particularly proud when I solved it, especially at no cost.

EVAP was just a nebulous term to me at the time, but I started really digging into the service manual and systematically testing things like canister blockage, purge solenoid operation, anti-siphon blockage, etc. I even made a special apparatus that allowed me to blow air (with my mouth) into the gas fill neck to rule out some final suspects.

It turned out the problem was the vent valve (ORVR, "B" in the picture) in the tank. After ruling everything else out and convincing myself it had to be that valve, I dropped the tank and removed/disassembled the valve. It works like a float, an open vent until the tank is full, but it was stuck at the top because it had swollen in its cage for some reason.

I sanded the float down just slightly, reinstalled it, and never had an issue since. Maybe it was a batch of bad gas that made it swell?

I can't imagine this being a good thing. A past article quoted somebody as basically saying people would be trusted to use their best judgment to keep their vehicles in a safe operating condition.

This doesn't even help low-income folks because the fee isn't going away, the name is just changing.

I haven't flown my main birds in a few years (only my profile foamie) but I just renewed my AMA membership, field membership, and Part 107 currency.

I also finally built some coping to help transport it all more easily.

I'm excited.
