Ran into this problem at a patients house today. I am running Ubuntu 16.04 and usually connect through my cell phone as a mobile hotspot, but there was no cell service at the location I went to. The patient has wifi in her house, but it only works with Windows 10 with WPS button on the router. Even though she gave me the password, I could not connect. Her new Verizon supplied router only wants WPS connections for some reason. Anyway, Ubuntu should really be able to do this.
