Mikrotik Documentation (Wiki) wrong WPS

In the documenation on https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:I ... WPS_Server there is a description of WPS Server and WPS Client the user interface (6.48.2 Stable) reads WPS Accept and WPS Client. This can be confusing for the user.

Where can I reprort such discrepances?

Re: Activate WPS on hAC

I need wps for wireless powerswitches. They do have a manual mode to setup the wifi connection that mode however is unsecure as it requires a temporary p2p wifi connection between smartphone and power-switch. WPS is the secure way to set them up.

WPS is very secure as it is switched off after that.

After upgrade DCHP relay not working on WLAN

Dhcp Relay is working fantastically on fixed ehternet connections but not on the wlan connections. It worked fine before the upgrade to v6.40.4.
What additional settings are required on the wlan connections to allow a DHCP Relay to work on WLAN connections?
