Since the pfSense runs on an ALIX single-board computer with built-in wifi, I am wondering if I can ditch the upstream WAP2400 and connect the downstream one directly to the pfSense as a client. (They have an IP address, which indicates there may be some kind of web configurator with additional options, but I am specifically interested in the WPS part.) Out of the box, each device is an access point it can be turned into a client by connecting to another access point via WPS. These devices essentially act as a pair of wifi access point and client. This has been solved by a pair of wifi bridges (Arris VAP2400/VAP2404, instructions here), one connected to the router, the other to the IPTV device. One of my IPTV receivers is in a room with no LAN wiring. I got everything to work, including Internet routing and IPTV. I am in the process of replacing my ISP provided router with pfSense. TL DR: I would like to connect a wifi client which supports only WPS to a pfSense running in access point mode.
