"WPS Button" on THOMSON 585 v7

How do you set the WiFi "WPS Button" to work?
I have a theory!  Just download the THOMSON SpeedTouch™585 v6 Manual from http://www.speedtouch.nl/docs/ST585_UserGuide.pdf . Then read Section 2.2.4 pages 29 to 30.
See attached for more background plus the (edited) extract from the v6 Manual

PS - I further suspect that the v6 guide would help to solve some of the other missing instructions we can't find in v7 or v8 SetUp & User Guides.
PPS - I tried finding answers in other forum topics, but just found other statements of similar unsolved problems.

Hi PeterP,
have you tried this, because AFAIK we have disabled it?

Hi Joanne,
Not tried yet - as it said in attachment waiting for advice before wasting another hour or two failing to get better result.
I've now searched a bit deeper.  Bob Pullin says at  http://community.plus.net/library/hardware/how-to-upgradedowngrade-the-firmware-on-the-thomson-585v7... :
Version 7.4.4.7 firmware (Plusnet branded) ~ PPTP ALG enabled / WPS disabled / ....
Version 8.2.23.0 firmware (Plusnet branded) ~ PPTP ALG disabled / WPS enabled / ....
Version 8.2.6.5 firmware (Plusnet branded) ~ PPTP enabled / WPS disabled / .....
I guess we would be best waiting for  Version 8.3.x.x (Plusnet branded) - ... / WPS enabled / ....?  I assume Version 8.2.23.0 firmware did not work!

Hi PeterP,
To be honest we are more likely to have new hardware rather than any new firmware for the v7.
